To remove the glass bowl you just loosen the nut at the bottom

of it and move the bail to the side. Do that with the valve off.

Once you get that off there is a screen and a gasket above the

glass bowl that you can remove and clean. Gasket may be cork

or rubber. They make both and either will work.

Once you get that off and the screen cleaned check the flow.

If you still don't have good flow there is a screen on top of the

whole sediment bowl assembly inside the tank. That one is only

accessible by unscrewing the whole sediment bowl assembly

from the bottom of the tank. That makes a big flammable mess.

Normal operation is to open the sediment bowl valve two full

turns. Only open it all the way if you need to use the reserve.

That reserve is normally full of rust/crud and will plug up your

carb and/or lines if used after 60 years of service.
