"So this leads to a question regarding Eric's situation. If each tank has its own fill cap, is it possible that the one with the cloudy fuel has a cap leak or bad seal or something that allowed rainwater to seep into the tank over all this time?"
Indeed it is. There is an undesirable situation that puddes water right over the fuel fill ports. And it's worse on the port side. I very carefully grease the "O" rings and frequently replace same. I thought if I couldn't see water in my samples pumped out of the bottom corner I was home free re water. Not so?
Marin that was very perceptive even if I've kept water out.
