Hello all, I am a new Comanche 260 owner and have ran into a bit of a problem. I am getting white specks in my fuel. It can be seen in the sump sample and even if you look in the tank. (See pictures). It seems that it is coming from the fuel caps, but I don’t understand why it is forming or what it is. Anyone ever seen this before of have ideas how to prevent it. Thanks in advance.
