Sediment bowl riser is known to plug with soybean fuzz or corn silks especially if the combine has been run with the fuel cap off(been there done that a time or two or 6){never my fault}.Take the whole sediment bulb out and quickly plug the hole.Takes a 3/8" or 1/2" pipe plug.I forget which.Then you can clean the riser out.There should be a screen on the riser but some don't have one or they get knocked off.I actually got so good at it that I plugged it with my finger and cleaned the riser without using a plug.Last fall,I finally cut a hole in the rear of the tank(7720) with a 6" hole saw,cleaned the tank out(mostly corn silks-some cobs ).Made a cover.Drilled and tapped (10/28)about 25-30 holes and made a cork gasket.If you go this route,figure out where the baffles are first.Its a great life!
