power ans service makes a good fuel tank cleaner and A diesel fuel biocide. just bee sure to have some fuel filters on hand, it can plug the filters if it does start to remove crap out of the tank. if the tank is rusty Id let it soak in a acid solution ether white viniger or muriatic acid. once the rust is removed you will have to line it or it will start to flash rust pretty fast. I had mine lined with red-Kote.I have heard all my life that gas and diesel gets into the pores of the metal. Recently I read an article that said that is not true. Now when you talk about residual diesel left in tank, is that a few drops of liquid or what might be in the pores? I have two 003’s . Tank one was bone dry but rusty and a sorta dry white substance . I could not wipe that white stuff off the removable fill tube, I assume it is alge. A wire brush took some of it off, but no way to get to the rest of the tank that has it. Tank two has what looks like 4 gallons of diesel, water etc in it along with the white stuff and it is like a paste, wipes off but leaves a thin coat. From what I have been able to get from the net, there are a couple of fuel treatments that will kill alge, if it is alge, when added to fuel. Tank one is getting electrolysis and red kite. Tank two tbd later. Any thoughts on the subjects?
Thank you!Correct, there is not supposed to be any big washers in there. Just the spring seat underneath and the 3 finger centering device on the top.
