Arch,
There is a screen filter in the bottom of the tank, You can get to it =
through a hole in the bottom of the body. may not be the problem if =
your tank is clean and you have been using clean fuel. My first guess =
is the draw tube in the top of the tank. I had a similar problem with =
my ZB when I first got it. When I pulled the fitting from the top of =
the tank the draw tube stayed in the tank. I was able to get the tube =
out with the screen on the bottom. My tube was soldiered into the =
fitting and the soldier joint had given up. It was an easy job to =
reattach the tube to the fitting.
