Happy Wednesday everyone. So I have a little bit of a dumb question regarding replacing my fuel lines with SS lines. I purchased lines from Pelican. When I spoke with the salesperson he informed me that he would be including everything I needed in the kit. My question is, I received two sizes and types of hose along with the SS lines; which of these goes where? I have braided hose and regular hose. I appreciate any information you can provide. Again, I apologize if this is a dumb question.

What is the best way to clean the tank at this point? I looked inside and its certainly not clean. I read in a previous post to find someone with small hands to reach inside; I'm not sure my four month old son's hands would fit inside that hole! Any advice on how to clean it out? I was thinking of using Por-15 but have heard some absolute horror stories. Any suggestions?

I was thinking of using Por-15 but have heard some absolute horror stories. Any suggestions? You've got options. Google "cleaning fuel tank" and you'll all sorts of creative ways people clean tanks. Usually involves a solvent, old nuts/bolt/nails, and some form of agitation. You can also take it somewhere to get reconditioned. I think I've seen people say they've had that done for a couple of hundred dollars. I've done the POR-15 thing twice. As with any POR-15 application, it is all about the prep and following the directions. First time I took my time and it turned out great. Second time I was in a bit of a rush and it didn't come out as well. Probably still usable (it's still sitting under my deck), but I'll assess when I need it. Before and after:   |
