So, it sounds like I need to remove the foam from my cell.

Or leave it in and let us know when not if it ends up in the fuel line. Ended up in my regulator. Though the regulator was bad and replaced it. That one screwed up a run later and that's when I found it. BP

The foam will retain the earlier gas and you WILL fail fuel check!!! remove it!

100% agree with removing the foam!! Not even just because you want to test with pump gas, but even if changing race gas brands from time to time. Removing the foam clearly helps fuel check.

Regarding pump gas for tnt, even without foam I got burned one time. I didn’t flush enough race fuel through it (trying to be cheap) and wound up failing fuel and having to waste way more race fuel than if I would have just flushed another gallon or so through.

Holy moly! Five gallons of Sunoco Purple is less that $50. Have never had it fail fuel check in 20 years.
