Despite your "fake" user name the answer to your question is "no" due to the check valve that prevents the carburetor fuel bowl from emptying when the engine isn't running.
Mike -
I think you just got trolled by fake... The opposite end of the gasket side of a Q-Jet inlet filter is a solid metal plate. Of course you can't blow through it. He knows it.
For all you guys that FAKE stands for my first three name initals and the E for Electrical Contractor was given to me 40 years ago by people i contracted with for electrical services. As far as that paper filter i read in a Chevrolet manual that was the way you checked them , by blowing thru them. The question i asked was due to having leakage under that fitting the fuel filter was located in, but i found the plastic o ring was crushed and assume that was the problem. Finding one of them has been a problem even at NAPA.,I normally buy two of every item i purchased so thanks for both of your help!
I don't have a QJet but memory serves me that past post over the years was NAPA was the Go-To place to find the cartridge alright. One thing about NAPA, if one store doesn't have em, there is another NAPA 15 miles away.
As a last resort, there is always EBay. Just check where its being shipped from.
