23 Reo 229 #1 Posted July 31, 2023 Can I shoot compressed air up my fuel line to clear the gas tank screen on my C-165 black hood? I'll clean it properly when I have time. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,318 #3 Posted July 31, 2023 I suppose you could as a temp fix. But I would recommend simply replacing it when you have a chance. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,902 #4 Posted July 31, 2023 I know many people consider snake oils just a make believe land, but a little ATF of your preferred flavor in your fuel is a great way to clean stuff as well. I’ve dumped a quart in an automotive fuel tank on occasion for years. My auto shop teacher taught us that it’s an amazing detergent and will do a fuel system good. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 9,168 #5 Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) After buying many fuel shut offs for 3 and 400 series WH's and using OEM ones I was informed that the Tecumseh ones were exactly the same for a lot less $ at our favorite WH Dealer in Beverly. Hi Dave I think it also came with the rubber bushing. Edited July 31, 2023 by JCM 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
