Hey guys thanks for all the feedback!

I have ordered a new sediment bowl set up from Kanter. The new one doesn't come with a ceramic bowl the guy said it has a paper filter. I still want a new bowl for my original. The guy from Kanter told me they sold just the bowl and seal in the past but didn't see it as a option anymore.

Leedy: There is a pic attached of the metal part. Thanks for all the in info.


That's Leeedy with 3 e's. You are very welcome.

As I indicated, and as I would have expected, you've got a Carter fuel line filter rather than AC. With the permanent ceramic fuel filter, there was no need to have a huge glass bowl.

Some of these even had small magnets in them (which trapped metal particles in the line). Your glass bowl would attach with flat straps rather than a bail wire clamp. Of course all the filtration ratio goes away with a paper filter. But, it is what it is today.

One thing is for certain: Packard knew what they were doing with these fuel systems.
