I’ve been going thru the same thing. Mine had been working for 20yrs, then came corn gas.
Mine was coming off in big sheets in the beginning. It was covering the gas outlet in the bottom of the tank and shutting the motor off.
I kept pulling the larger sheets out with a coat hanger. They didn’t have the “pencil filter”
When this first started happening. So I happened to have my airless sprayer apart cleaning it and there was a real slick filter in there much like the pencil filters except it screwed in to
The spray wand. I tapped my shut off valve and screwed it in and it has worked great.
It is also a little taller than the pencil filter and made out of stainless steel.
