They do help in refueling, however the original intent of the strainer was to prevent fuel theft. Has nothing to do w/ "filtering". I did tell my nephew they are there to prevent a hand grenade being dropped in the tank. He said "cool".
You will hurt yourself in the long run. Part of operating heavy equipment/big trucks is the ability to maintain them, that may take a certain investment in tooling and support equipment. The payback in acquiring the right tools for the job is directly proportional to time saved and wear and tear...
Installed a remote brake fluid reservoir on the 813, drained the transmission and transfer case. Next up is change the fuel filter out. Then service everything up to specs. Mobil Delvac 1300 Super 15W40 on sale at Rural King ($59.99), and manufactures rebate of $25/ 5 gal. pale makes it $1.75/qt.
Yep, nice airport bar just south of Lou. International (SDF) good food, cold beer, and real friendly help, they'll even wash your car on Thursday and you can watch.
Always disconnect Negative cable first and reconnect last. Lucky you didn't blind yourself and burn the truck to the ground.
PPE= safety glasses. Stay safe.
