Suggest install of in line auxiliary filter "while your there"

I've wondered about sediment in the tank. This may be a good opportunity to drain it and check it out. I'll look into adding an auxiliary filter too.

If the coil is bad how would that keep the fuel pump from running when being jumped at the relay or activated by lifting up on the plunger to get the CIS system started?
I guess I should check for spark but it seemed like the fuel pump not running was the cause of the car dying on the way home and failing to start since.
