I let mine drain out over night (dribble at a time), then used a Rigid inspection camera (Under 100 bucks at Home Depot) to look at the bottom inside. Small bug was obstructing the fuel outlet, got it with a pair of 'grabber' tongs.

After the 2nd time, I fixed the problem with one of these inserted in the fuel outlet:

How did you get to bottom of tank to install the finger screen? Fill filter is in place and I have again acquired an obstruction.

Kubota dealers sell a one size fits all strainer for around 15 bucks. I suggest you invest in one. Fits in the filler neck, keeps crap out of the tank.
