Sounds like the BB in the FPR trick. Do a search for FPR and BB and see what you come up with.

I have my old FPR and fuel bowl in my garage. When I get home from work I could see if there is a part like that on mine. Here is an exploded drawing of the whole assembly:

I went to get that and no where on the bottle did it say anything about algae, so i asked the guy and he said that he wasnt sure that it would kill it and that i should use some other stuff, that of course he didnt have, couldnt find, or think of the name of. so we left there and went to a big rig parts store and found an actual bio-cide, for $24..... but hey it treats up to 1000 gals.

Im not complaining or anything like that at all. i just wanted to let you know what napa told me.
