MEP004A--How to clean trash from IP

Apologies in advance, but I searched for some older posts that I thought I saw (a few months back) that described the method to remove trash from the IP fuel inlet or some window? on the IP. Can someone point me in the right direction? I'd like to remove any possibility that my freq variations are being caused by fuel flow restrictions and "unstable" IP function. Sewerzuk asked me about this quite awhile back, but at the time I couldn't [audibly] detect any RPM changes while running at speed. Now I'm wondering if that could be the problem even though the speed changes are not detectable with my ears. And before I start swapping electrical parts I'd like to eliminate the possibility of fuel to the IP being partially restricted and causing the freq variations I'm seeing....

Thanks,

Kevin

I believe I found goldneagle's thread where leedawg & jbk provided some good advice about working the return fitting on top of the IP & removal of the glass ball:

Will try some of the advice on this thread to see if it helps.


Thanks to all who contributed to goldneagle's thread!
