: 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.

The filter on the top under the gas cap is there to help prevent the chance of static spark starting a explosion or fire, and the splashing of gas out during driving. The one at the fuel valve keep all the junk from the gas tank out of the fuel line and carb. It would be a good idea to have them both in place.
