OK, Miles tale of woe has got me worried. I disassembled my car 4 months ago, it was running just fine before the "rustoration" started, and in the process I drained and removed by gas tank. It has been sitting on the parts shelf since then. What should I do (if anything) to clean and reline the tank? How should I store it (I haven't done anything, but it sits there with no gas in it and the cap on. Any suggestions will be appreciated. By the way, IMHO the way the Steve at Otto's has responded has not helped him at all. Based on his comments alone, I would not care to do business with his shop. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Duct tape works well for sealing the ports.
Yes, my wife yells at me for leaving parts around the house, especially since the house is for sale. doh! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I have the confined to one small area downstairs, an area upstairs int he bonus rom, and in the garage... so I guess they are everywhere. When we are showing the house, I make a disclaimer. The men touring the home usually dig the car parts and start talking cars.... |
