It is a screen, and if plugged it is easily cleaned. However, the problem may also be that it has slid over its stop and pulled its way up the pickup tube.

In my car, I simply installed a hose clamp on the pickup tube to serve as a positive stop. -- Kirbert | If anything is to be accomplished, | some rules must be broken. | - Palm's Postulate References:
