Most of those old screens rot away. The old timmers would take out the last of it and just rely on the "bowl" part. Old mower parts places have those little screes or go to NAPA. I bought a whole cheap pot metal shut off valve and removed the screen. Put it into the antique chain saw I was working on. An old Mall model 11 beast. Just a dab of permatex around the bottom of the screen and let it set up. The screen should be at least two inches long if possible. I also got hold of the old screen in a REALLY old parts store and it can be cut to size and soildered. One of the neighbors dad had some old window screens from the thirtys in his shed that were brand new. They had BRASS screen in them. It was the top of the line back then. Good hunting. Jeffcat
