Everybody has a right to their opinion, but I would NOT run it unsealed with just the sediment bowl. You are betting a lot that the bowl will catch enough of the light loose stuff and that you will not end up with your carb getting a lot of dirt in the various small passages where it matters. Take off your gas line and install a temporary rubber line and in-line filter suitable for gravity systems until you have gone thru a few tanks and feel that your gas is reasonably clean. Then put your actual line back on and fall back on the sediment bowl. OR, if you feel there will be a continuing problem, install a filter in the original gas line. Since I started doing this I seem to be having a lot less carb trouble.
