Here's my home made pencil filters. Got the idea from another Model A buddy a couple years ago. You simply roll a piece of brass screen around the appropriate size drill bit to fit the intake side of the shutoff valve. Solder the seam and install in the shutoff. The tank will then drain the same as no pencil filter because there in no copper upright tube used as the commercial filters that you see in the catalogs. ALL the gas drains out and the screen stays put if you get the right diameter so it fits snugly in the shutoff. Gravity does the rest.

So, where does one get this screen w/the small mesh?
Any screen I've been able to source is loo large a mesh to capture water.
