Ken,
I read somewhere that the screen is there for safety reasons, not to filter gas. You have to bend your float arm to clear the screen. After all, they did work at one time.

: Is the gas tank filter screen actually necessary these days? When I put mine in, it interferes with the travel of the gas tank gauge arm. I can't get a proper reading through my observation window. I am thinking that with the filters on the pump handles these days...I could get away without using it. Please advise.
