[TR] Gas Tank Sealer ?

[Alex&Janet Thomson]

Dan - I have used a gas tank sealer product from a company in Creston, 
Calif. called "The Shop" in a variety of rusty farm tractor gas tanks. Their 
sealer will take care of pinholes as well as loose rust. I find that dumping 
in a box  of 3/8" steel nuts and shaking the tank vigorously will help to 
dislodge a lot of loose material. By using steel nuts, you can always get 
them all out with a magnet. You can check out their website at the 
following:
