I just need to screen out stuff large enough to plug the inlet on the line!
In a light case of filter plugging (like when you switch from regular gas to gasohol), after a couple of filter changes you should be ok. I've not done it myself, but this is according to someone 46 years in the business.

BUT if it's as bad as you say it is... You may have to remove the tank and clean out the crap.

Maybe your perforated hose pickup option sounds pretty good.

Ok, tomorrow or the next day it's coming out. My dad just got a new power washer, and I'll be using that to blast the crap out of it. Literally.

Before I do that though, I'll work on that burnout / takeoff / second gear chirp video. I know everybody's itching to see it!
