The Magnet is a great trouble shooting tool. But, not a resolution to the problem. Using a tank sealer is a better step but without following all the steps even that can have added problems. A couple of things that should be looked at when purchasing a tank sealer, how long it will last and is it good with the new fuels on the market today. Even octane boost can cause problems. The sealer should last 10 years and should resist alcohol based fuel, Lacquer, hydrocarbons and keytones are a few.
