Yesterday was a big day... bug not just big enough... We managed to fit in the glass and the rubber with a gap ... but the rubber is just not sitting as it should .Any ideas how to fix this please?

oh i think i can answer my own post ... looks like this is what happened in my tan!! found this pic probabbly it describes exactly my case..

do you know if the pick up pipe (inc strainer) could be unscrewed and taken away from the tank outlet hole please ?

what's the pick up pipe like at the end is it a gauze or jist an open end pipe? I'll try to poke the blockage with some steel wire if the latter is the case

Has anyone seen the actual end of the pipe inside the tank? is it actually open ended or does it include a metal strainer?

hi thank you all for the replies!! unfortunately the blockage is confirmen on the inside of the tank!! i put some Redex petrol cleaner directly into the strainer pipe and im leaving it in for a couple odf days. If nothing happens then it has to be a new/sh tank...
