Tom,
The screen is quite effective. Several list members' trucks have died when it
gets clogged. The problem lies in the difficulty in replacing it since it's in
the tank. The question would be the effect of unfiltered fuel entering the
fuel pump. This wasn't a problem before when they had exterior fuel filters.

P.S. My Honda 5Kw generator has a fuel strainer in the filler neck. It filters
the fuel before it even gets in the tank. It looks kinda like one of those
$2.99
plastic coffee filters.
