I have a 55 Fairlane with a replacement stock style gas tank in it. It seems like I’m getting a low volume of fuel coming from the tank. I’m suspecting that the sock (if there is one) may be partially blocked. The way these tanks are setup is a little foreign to me, with the separate outlet and sender.

At a glance it doesn’t look like there’s a way to remove the outlet from the tank, is there? Otherwise, how do you go about cleaning or replacing the sock, if there is one?
