Fuel filter bowl cleaning

[rammertide07]

Ok...this may be a dumb question.....

there's some grime at the bottom of the bowl. Is there any other way to get it out other tan wiping? Can I flush it out with something? Just asking because I guess its the fuel bowl heater element thats in the way to wipe down in there real good. Thankss...

I took the element out and then cleaned it out with rags, q-tips, whatever fit down there. For the my obs, I needed a crows-foot wrench to get the stand pipe thing out. As for cleaning without taking the element out....good luck.
