Not many bikes have a strainer and if they do, it will mean stripping the engine and splitting the crankcases. As long as you change your oil, you don't need to worry about a strainer.
Did you go to buy a fuel filter and they gave you a strainer kind of filter?
Many vehicles now days do not have a servicable filter. They just use the sock, or strainer, that is inside the fuel tank.
Really does not make good sense to me because fuel pick ups have always had a type of strainer filter and the external servicable filter would still catch dirt. So now without that servicable external filter where does the dirt go.
Most likely your vehicle does not have an external filter and what you got was an in-tank filter.
Get a "FIT ALL" basket for now just to make it so you can use the sink, and most people will never see it . Order a new strainer that fits, They might send you just the one complete system
The thing that happend is your hoping to get everything done.. Dont let that upset you .

Call Kohler Plumbing customer service: 1.800.456.4537, choose option 2 for service parts.
Tell them you need a "Feet Replacement Kit" for whatever model name/number and color your basement rack is. Prices run about $1 per piece plus shipping.
Usually the gasket is not foam but black rubber. There may have been a piece of foam as packing to protect the stainless. You would apply the plumber's putty directly to the sink. Insert the strainer directly into the putty, compressing the putty. Under the sink, remove the excess putty that extruded through the opening. Apply the rubber gasket to the bottom of the sink, and then the nut (sometimes a "cup" and then the nut) .When the nut is tight, remove excess putty inside the sink. LEAKPROOF!
Hello I'm an M.B. tech.. It sounds like the fuel strainer is clogged. It is a very common problem on M.B. diesel engines of that era. Diesel fuel develops algea inside the fuel tank and after a period of time it clos the strainer. The strainer is at the bottom of the fuel tank where the big fuel hose attatches to the tank. The hose unscrews frome the strainer and then the strainer unscrews from the tank. There is a filter on the strainer that can be cleaned and reinstalled. In the engine compartment there is a small primer pump that is by the fuel rack inline with the feed hose from the tank. If you turn the knob(clear or white plastic) on the pump it will retract allowing you to use it as a hand pump. If when attempting to retract hand pump it is sucked back down and will not stay retracted that means you have a restriction in the line- your fuel strainer is clogged is the most likley problem. replace both fuel filters during repair for best results. Good Luck
Bronze is more expensive than standard mass production is worth, i supposed if you want them made out of any mat. you can call kohler and pay for it, i've been to their plant and they do some pretty awsome custom work.
Rubbed oil is just a color and somtimes "you get what you pay for" if you buy a cheap basket strainer they usually do exactly what you're saying.
You can buy more expensive strainers that have a better finish, I know Kohler and Moen have lifetime warranty finish on many of their higher end products.
