I did a quick search and came up empty. Has anyone tried these? I’m wondering if they will fit our fuel tanks.

You can tap the inside of the fuel tank fitting to 1/4 pipe thread. You do loose the sock but I would rather have an external filter to trap the dirt and stuff outside of the tank.
Use a 1/4 male pipe x -6 AN. You could probably install a riser if you could get inside of the tank. The opening is too big for my hands but had my 9 year old grandson reach in to fish out a washer I dropped in one. |

I tapped my tank for a 1/4npt pipe tread / -AN6 fitting and then fabricated a metal mesh sock to it  |
