All very good questions and answers.

My thoughts are that I am going to do what I can from the access hatch (ie
remove old fuel and what solids I can), change the filter, fill er' up
again (with Stabil added) and call it good. I may buy some star brite, whic
Practical Sailor gave two thumbs up to.

Since I am not experiencing any issues at the moment, I will save the
professional cleaning if/when they arise.

Best,
