Just so everyone knows...part # 646-24251-02 is a strainer in the line from the pump that's in the bilge with the 2 1/2 gal. tank pic #25 and part # 68F-13440-00 is a filter that is in the line by the toggle switch under the cowling on the port side by the little oil tank pic#35 using Boats.net parts schematics. YES they will clog. Hope this clears up any confusion for anyone who is also now having or haves this problem in the future. Thanks Marty D ! I am sure this info will help someone out, so they don't have to run to a dealer.
