Hi guys, have any of you used any of the gas tank restoration products? I have deposits in my tank. I have drained the tank twice. I have an inline fuel filter plus the one on the carburetor. I have changed the rubber fuel line joints. What is y'all's response?
There used to be some goop that you could buy from harly davidson dealers that would coat the inside of your tank and trap any paricles and seal any holes that you tank may have . In my experience it would also work on rusted seams too. I dont know if there is a product that does the same thing or if the bike shops still sell it .
2 things that I know of...one is get it hot tanked by a machine shop or a radiator shop and the other is one that I saw in the por15 catalog they sell a tank restoration kit, kinda on the expensive side but you gotta do something. they have a website also
Look in the AutoKrafters catalogue. Bill Hirsch sells the whole tank restoration system. Don't know how good it works, but for the price, it doesn't seem too bad. Let us know, Earl
WHY NOT? Why not a new tank? I put one in mine... easy to drop and put in. here is a link. http://www.auto-gas-tanks.com/selec...ICK&MAKE=FORD&imageField.x=46&imageField.y=13 Hope that fits... If not just try the main portion. Chris!!
Those tanks are the larger ones and will not work in the 71-73 Mavericks and Comets without some mods. You need longer tank straps and the valance panel will rub against it unless you bow it out some. I've seen the smaller tanks in 74's before too so some of them will need mods too.
