Gas Tank question

[Bob Carriere]

Hi Jordan

I have done a few old Allis-Chalmers circa 1945 fuel tanks with the POR kits and they are very good for the price... one of them is still sitting out there in the snow half fillewd with gas.

You ave to wash the inside with an acid solutions, actually muriatic acid.....spelling?... the one you get at Home
Depot to remove rust spots from cement. The kit does include solution but on a large tank you need more. Rince with mots of water. dry vry well on a sunny day. then you seal all openings except one and poor the sealer...... slosh around and poor out extra...leave cap off and let dry for a few days. I found that even pin holes were sealed permanently.

Having acces to an old electric cement mixer and rubber bungee straps makes life a lot easier especially with a larger tank.

To get a better job do the outisde with POR 15 balck matt paint and it should outlive you even at your young age......
