Hi All,
I'm rebuilding a carb for my 82 pickup. The original strainer is damaged (plastic ring which seals over the valve seat is cracked). The replacement is not in any rebuild kit I can find. It is also not available as a standalone part.
Is this part absolutely necessary? Can I have the same effect by adding some type of inline filter between the fuel pump and the carb? If it is necessary, can I use liquid gasket to patch the part?
Thanks for any advice,
Matt
