Also if there was that much dirt..I highly, and I mean really highly doubt these 15+ years old Honda's will still be running....fuel filters will be soo dirty that the car cant run no more..

beaters = using crappy gas
I'm with you all the way. I don't think mychee understands enough about how the system works. He could always modify his tank to add a sump like you see on gasoline piston aircraft and drain the "dirt" (you'd probably come across more water than anything). Then he'll never plug up his fuel filter!
