Was working on fuel gage, and one of the little screws fell into the fuel tank. Does the motor have a screen to where the screw would never get sucked into the carborator and cylinders? It is a 1997 Fast Stripe.

Yes it has a screen. And the chances are of it getting into the fuel system are about as good as I have of winning the lottery. LOL

That motor may also have a main strainer under the airbox. You might add a water seperator to filter the fuel as well. It is a pretty good idea with the lousy gasoline we have these days.
