This is on the Massey Ferguson 165 I am helping the state ag museum with.
Well, I pressure washed it inside and out and it had a bunch of loose gunk inside after I finished.
A friend from across the river in GA sent me an email saying he has used purple power sloshed around to clean a dirty tank.
I bought 2 gallons yesterday and the first one dissolved the gunk and it was black coming out. Rinsed it a long time until water ran clean. Poured the second gallon in and sloshed around and it came out clean. Rinsed a long time with water and it was clean.
Inside of tank looks very good.
The fuel sending unit float was bad and I found one that fit for less than $3 at O'Rielly's.
Painted the outside of the tank just to make it look nice. Almost no rust on it and it was just thin surface rust.
Gonna set up a 2 inch squirrel cage fan at the openings today and dry it out.
Thanks for all the advice and especially thank you Ed in GA.
