Tootle pip!!
PS: Years ago now, but persistent engine/fuel system problems due fuel quality is why Qantas Eastern got rid of Titans, with a policy decision of no more petrol burners. As we found out later the problem was EDA.
Yep you missed passed comments on a C441 fuel issue witnessed by a poster (here) on another thread that we still await to hear about its fuel issue from the ATSB.

The lack of lead allowed a massive fungal growth in the fuel tanks!!
