The one tank I opened up had no screen, does anyone have a picture of
it? Here is the tank from my '84
http://s197.photobucket.com/albums/aa190/becida/84%20Fuel%20tank/ . I
did later take the plate off to inspect the tubes, just tubes. A
photo would be great!

As to the tank question I went with
http://www.van-cafe.com/home/van/page_1178_1457/fuel__gas_tank.html
for $225, solved a lot of problems.
