T&T: 100 gallons of bad diesel needs cleaning

I recently pick up my new used boat and ending up changing 3 filters
during a 3-day period.  I want to polish the remaining fuel and to my
knowledge there is no one in the area that does this.  I have an old
Dahl diesel fuel filter and plan to buy an electric fuel pump to hook up
to the filter.  I would appreciate any specific recommendations on pump
brand, horsepower/gallons per minute, and 12 volt versus 110 volt.  My
inclination is to get a 110V pump since I don' look at fuel polishing as
a task that I need to do away from the dock.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
