Most parts stores can get them overnight if they don't have them in stock. My local NAPA carries them.

The last one i bought was made in China and the glass bowl was to small to work well. It looked like they made the bowl small to fit other sizes.

I just put a new shut off valve in the tank , a brass fitting in the carb and a rubber hose/filter. I also turn the tank around so the fitting isn't setting above the coil , in case it decides to start leaking. I guess you could do that with a sediment bowl , but never tried it.

Not sure if all the sediment bowls are made like the one i bought , just giving you a heads up.

I'm NOT a purists in that my cub MUST stay original, so;

I eliminated my bowl & my gas runs through a regular gas filter made for small engines.

No more issues with those glass bowls, just change my filters every spring. About. $ 3.50 each.

NIK,

That is my recommendation. Get the in-tank screen shutoff, an inline filter, some fuel line, a few clamps, you are in business!!

For what it's worth, the nice thing about a sediment bowl is it gives water a chance to settle out BEFORE it gets to the carb bowl. It's really the only benefit of using one nowadays. Fuel filters have come a long way since then.

Doesn't the ethanol absorb the water?

I haven't seen water in the bottom of a gas can in years!!

At least the water can no longer rust the bottom of a steel gas tank!!
