I think you should find the strainer tube that goes over the feed tube on
your petcock. The reason why; if any chunks of rust or debris floats down
and into the gas inlet orifice, it could restrict the flow of gas, or stop
gas delivery all together. The in-line fuel filter is a secondary filter,
I have a Petcock to tank screen from an 84 CB650SC. If they are the same you
can have it, just pay postage from New Hampshire 03063. Jim.

Definitely remove the little cup and plastic screen. Very easy to do. If there
are chunks of rust in there you know you need to find a screen for your tank.
Apply a lil 3-in-1 oil to to the oring and cup threads while reassembling.

It could be worth it. It's just a little cup with an o-ring and the screen.
Requiring servicing really depends on the condition of everything.. if the
bike never acts like it's starved for fuel, I wouldn't.

The screens are shared across two or three manufacturers from back then. So
look at the part and then look at a petcock from a different year if you
are obsessive.

You could probably look forever and not find another Petcock screen,
discontinued and hard to come by intact. There's also a small strainer
filter in the bottom of the petcock bowl.

If you have an inline, it's covered. I'd swap it out twice a year to be
sure.
