The carb filter can easily be blocked by water. It seldom sees a great deal
of "stuff" if it is preceeded by an in line filter, but those filters are
frequently a 15 or 20 micron filter which will allow water to pass through,
but intercept rust and "crud" from the tanks. No perfect system, I guess.
