Tying to fight the winters grip here in KY, so the minds loose and wondering. Working on my old 914 project, at least in my mind for now, but I have a question that maybe someone else can answer.
I have my gas tank removed from the car and I wish to seal the inside of the tank with any of the gas tank coating kits on the market, to of course prevent any rust in the fuel system. My question is it might be months or more before the tank will be put back into service. I haven't found anything out about if this will cause any problems? I mean setting dry without gas in it? I would think that the sealer would cure better that way? Any thoughts? Thanks Robert in cold and snowy KY |

From all the threads here on this subject, the process I've put together for my build is as follows:
1: remove tank from car 2: weld up the tubes at the bottom (for my build...not everyone) 3: cut the hole at the top for the subaru fuel dealio 4: weld in the new T-nuts 5: fill 1/4 of the tank with gravel and tape iup the holes 6: rig it somehow to a grill rotisserie for tumbling 7: remove the rocks and admire the lack of rust 8: hose it out to remove newly created sand 9: use that Caswell kit 10: dump the excess on Mark's floor Did I miss anything? |
