I seperated the pickup assembly to check on the pick up tube condition and low and behold there was another screen on the pickup tube. So you may want to drop your tank and check the screens out due to the cleaning action of the bio.

well I finally got to it today and wow is all I can say about that pre-filter, about half an inch thick across the whole thing :humm: it runs fine now so I am happy

Excellent. My 12V was used I cleaned the prefilter not long after getting the truck and it was as clean as a whistle. :w2::w2::w2:
A lot of the times, the issues with 12Vs are usually stupid things like this. |
i cleaned mine @ 150K miles and it was clean as a whistle too.... that's after i put 70 K on it..... but i don't run bio.... all Number 2 for me.... well maybe some WMO from time to time.....

OMG...that would do it....:f::f::f:
Did you look at the pickup in the tank? I would bet its not in very good shape either. |
uh...yeah I'd say you found your problem. Damn, I thought mine was bad the first I cleaned it.
