"Your very welcome. Also I have added small "in-line" filters just before the carb on some motors that I know will have unknown or different tanks connected to them.

Guests can do some funny things when they are out in the bush. Even some dirt can get on the motor fitting and if its not cleaned off before the line is attached, of course it can get into the carb."
