Yes whatever you categorise it as. The thing is the design and I'm not necessarily blaming Land Rover here as VDO make the sender / swirl pot assembly, but I have replaced countless fuel filters, many with just a few visible particles in, others with twigs and bits of leaves in and all sorts of gunk and grime, but none have ever come to a grinding halt with the fuel pick up in the tank blocked. Therefore all of this foreign matter has travelled up the fuel line with no d'etre mental effect. Imagine it is in Africa with a full tank of fuel, being a Defender they have no inspection plate in the back and no drain. This is not clever in any sense.

If it's diesel bug, there are fungicides available to put in the tank to kill it off.
