Re: Gas tank question
On my 36 tank the inlet tube that is inside of the gas tank had plugged up so much that I’d only be able to drive a few miles before I’d be on the side of the road. I bought a new Drake tank and installed it.
With the original tank on the bench I found that I couldn’t get much air down the inlet tube and I couldn’t push a 1/8th inch rod through it. I ran a long drill down the pickup tube to clean out the crud that had accumulated. Don’t know if it was an accumulation of rust, gas tank sealer or a combination of all of the above. Whatever it was was very hard to drill out. I doubt that you could diagnose this problem without removing the tank.
