I do not like the look of the muck on the inside funnel shaped part of the striiner might check availablity befor I wreck it?

DS show it as discontinued - might try a bottle brush from the inside with some petrol.

No longer available Ted, either from DS or CMS.
I always soak ours in the parts wash for a few days, rince out thoroughly with parts wasb fluid or diesel and repeat. They always come up nice and clean.

I'll do that Julie just tried a quick petrol wash and it went black immediately so clearly needs a good soak in parts wash - petrol is a bit harsh on the rubber part.

Faced with their imminent extinction  :o and if no pattern part emerges to fill the void, can more frequent oil changes be enough to cope with not having one at all?
