Its not really a sock, its a stainless steel mesh that I hand sewed with stainless string, very proud of that little hidden gem, its very rigid and I had the stock 1/4 line in there (minus the sock) when this problem started. I just replaced that part after this problem started. And the 2 filters that are outside the tank are what holley recomends; a corse one before the pump, and a fine one between it and the carb. So if im understanding you, your saying to run no filters?
