Strainer-Grade Brass Wire Cloth

Thanks.  I'd ordered the ACS part and was going to snip the material off to re-use on a 1/8" elbow, but this looks a lot cleaner. 

 

Also, I did find these: http://tinyurl.com/p3ncddr (ebay)  Looks like some common riding lawnmowers use a 1/8" flange/bung, and this part includes a finger screen and screw valve.  I ordered one to check out the quality, flow rate, and fuel compatibility, but I really doubt I'll go that way.  (Although having a screw valve at each tank outlet would make fuel system maintenance pretty easy.  I'd probably be compelled to safety wire it open, and that would look a little odd)
