Vin,
The tank of my TD was similar to yours when I got it. The car had sat with
a virtually empty tank fop quite a few years. I bought some tank cleaning
solution from Eastwood and put it into the tank along with a few short pieces of
chain. That's after inserting a variety of rubber stoppers into the various
orifices. I then proceeded to spend the better part of an afternoon out in the
backyard turning the tank end-for-end and round-and-round. It didn't take long
before all of the rust and crud was drained out. I thought about coating the
inside of tank with their compound, but decided against it. The last thing that
I want is to have loose compound clogging the filter screens.
