Is the tank vented?

I just had to replace my filter ,I think there may be some local gas stations with a little garbage in the tanks,like rock longs shell gas station in ojai
I made it about 3/4 of the way up 33 after a fill there 3 weeks ago,I am about to replace it again ,just because there was soo much gray and black garbage that came out of my filter.The car was running just fine before that voyage and after a filter change it ran fine again.

This won't solve your current problem, but might help in the future. If you go to get gas and the tanker is at the station, don't get any. When the tankers dump gas into the tanks it stirs up the mess that is already down there, and your car will get both the gas and the crap thats in the gas. I try to avoid this situation at all times. Sometimes, in an emergency, you might not be able to.
