Andair told me they had tried to buy 100 mesh screen but couldn't . 70 was
the nearest to the Rotax spec. They might make up a replacement filter for
our Mr Funnel. If you see Andy or Owen before I do a respectful request
might work?
Andy's attitude when I described this incident was, " well! he shouldn't
have used a rusty Jerry can!" I didn't like that answer really. Folks do
what they think is right at the time. I assumed that because the mesh looks
the same it was the same. Wrong, but an easy mistake, they both block water.
