fuel tank removal

[spinnerbaitdave]

Hi all just a question as to fuel filters, does anyone know if there is a fuel filter before the primer bowl in a stratos 285XL pro. I have picked up a bad batch of fuel. I have cleaned the tank out the best i can with ou taking it all apart but i cant see in where the fuel tank is to know if there is a inline fuel filter or not. Hope you can help.

Not a filter, but the anti-siphon valve is at the tank's exit fitting, at the hose....
They can get clogged, or corroded, 'n need cleanin' or replacin'....
