thanks Bob W.
your explanation of operational theory makes perfect sense.
condition of screen just didn't lend itself to coming to that conclusion.

have checked several vendors to no avail.
anybody have a line a new oil pickup?

thanks,

"Original"-- Technical Questions, Answers, Observations / oil pickup screen

the screen in my oil pickup is all torn up.
screen also has a hole, with a grommet around it, about the size of a quarter.
it appears to be by design... doesn't make sense.
why would you put a hole in a filtering screen?
asked Mike over at Kaiser Willys... he was at a loss.

any insight?
where might i find a replacement screen?
metal window screen work?

thanks,
frank
