While I'm replacing the fuel lines on the 74 I thought I'd address the inside of the tank while I have it out. It's rusty but not too awful. The screen was pretty dirty though.
I'm leaning towards the POR15 system but have a few questions. What's the best way to seal the tank while I'm stirring all of the solutions around inside? It's looking like a pretty good upper body workout and I would hate to interrupt the fun with leaking solvent. Open for suggestions of other products. Cheers!  |
