Likely you have condensation buildup in the fuel tank...when you filled it, you mixed the water with the fuel. Don't bother with drygas There is about two gallons of space between the tank pickup and the bottom likely a good part of that is water....remove the tank and clean it out.

- You could change the filter, but Unloess you are very lucky, I'm betting on water in tank. If when you change the filter, you find any water in there (pour contents into glass jar) any small amount shows a larger amount in tank...Seen this many times before.
