Regarding the threads recently about unexpected stalls that at least some have been from solid objects or semi-solid objects in the fuel tank blocking the fuel exit or fuel line, I noticed this YouTube from Messicks:


So I ordered one and will see if it fits properly when I get back to the shop. Will post result when I see.

Fits just as he shows in the video. To install and have it to stay in, the fuel cap retainer would need to be removed. I think it more practical to use just during use of transfer pump.

I did the same. Took the little silicone ring off the top and discarded it. Works perfectly.

I'm interested in acquiring one of these. I would appreciate it if anyone who has fitted one of these filters to a Ventrac would provide a link to the specific product, or the name of the manufacturer and the model number of the filter.
