I have always been in the habit of using a large [ 10 inch ] grounded metal funnel that is equipped with an extremely fine metal screen soldered in. Most farm or auto stores should have them in supply. The extremely fine wire screen actually stops even water from passing through. I generally carry a smaller one in baggage. It can mean being somewhat slower in the fueling operation when away from home base, but I prefer to be confident about the cleanliness of the gas the carb is getting. Out in the countryside, you can get dirty fuel probably more frequently than you would in the larger centers. Be vigilent always, everywhere.
