Long Range Petrol tank access issue

[Yendor]

BigCol told for some reason Nissan decide not to fit a strainer to some vehicle with internal tanks.
I'm guessing, it may have something to with reducing the stress on the pump?!!

I'm putting a new strainer anyway. They are cheap enough in fleabay.

I had a look inside the tank. I couldn't find anything inside. BTW, bottom of the tank is pretty clean.
No dregs that I can see. I bet the reason is that there's no strainer and the pump must have been
sucking up all the gunk. Most likely the reason for pump intermittent failure or one of the reasons.

What do you think about my choices with a petrol resistant glue/sealant. ATM, I have epoxy and aviation goo. Both apparently petrol resistant?!

It should of had a strainer. I'm guessing when that tank was fitted they forgot to refit it or it's fouls on something within the tank (swirl pot??) and they had to leave it off.

You won't need glue with the correct strainer and fuel pump.
