(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Just getting started bringing back a 73 2.0 Should I rebuild the master brake cylinder and brakes even if they seem to work?
Also need advice on how to get tar out of gas lines and injectors? |

Pull the tank, remove the sender, filler neck, and bottom fittings. Hand it off to a professional for cleaning (BUT NOT COATING) or take your safety into your own hands and use muriatic acid to clean out the inside. Once all the old rust and scale is cleaned off and the tank is washed out with water (yes water) until no particulate is coming out. Then dry the tank with a heat gun, and apply this epoxy sealant. Done and you'll never have to deal with it again.
