Well, at 1 am my power went out. Having an enclosed poultry barn is is critical to get the power up. Soo I took the snowblower off the 544D hooked up the generator and got things safe. Called the power company and they said it will be a while (substation or something) So I grabbed 6 more gallons fuel fromn the barrel to top off the 544D, funnel has a filter screen and she started flowing real slow, shined the flashlight into the funnel and seen what I beleive was Algae floating around. Didnt add more than 4 from can and scrapped the screen, was greenish blackish slime. I have about 200 gallons in the main tank. What do I do, is there anything to add, or will I be changing lots of filters? Do I need to have it dumped and refiltered. I dont have a filter system on the main tank would adding one to the system be sufficeint or will the crap in the fuel mess up anything it is used in? Power is on now at $:30 am, well at least the mornings chores are done
