I have never run a fuel sump on my -6A, but have filters between the tank and selector valve.  originally I choose inexpensive fabric(?) filament filters with the idea that I would simply replace them every annual.  one year I found fibers in the intake screen of the carb.  they are very difficult to see because they are basically clear, especially when wet with fuel.  so now I have the glass case metal screen filters, with I thought I'd could check before each flight, but admittedly don't.    kevin
