Reply to "Icky Rust in Fuel Tank"

guyman (Guest)

OK., here is what I am goin gto do. I ordered that kit from Eastwood. With all the materials to coat the inside of the tank. I freind of mine that restored motorcycles told me NO NO NO , do not use it. It eventually comes off in sheets and wraps around the pick-up resolting in NO GAS. So I am going to start by draining the tank and washing it out. I am goint to try and get a brush inside the tank to scrub the top and then rince it really good with water. I was told to use something to eat the rust, like muratic acid but to watch out for the fumes. Don't know if I am going to do that yet. Tonight I am going to drain the gas and let it air out for a while. Then do the water and air it out to get rid of all the fumes. Then if I can find a brush and modify it to get the top if the tank scrubed I will. Stay tuned in.
