We have more ear wigs than ever before. They sure love to camp around diesel fuel. Went to fill the tractor yesterday and they came crawling out of the fill hos; gave it a crank and about 50 swarmed out. As the tank went dry yesterday while filling up, I opened the fill cap to double check the fuel level and I swear 100 of the little critters came out from around the caps voids. Far as I know none went in the tank. The 10 micron filter will get them. What is more scary is how many have I or my hired hand unknowingly dumped in the tractor tank that were hiding in the hose. Maybe that is the reason for often line filter clogging. I will be flushing the hose first from now on.
