Tall boy gas tank clean up

[john8504]

Thanks mumbles! That is awesome!!

Just realized that the float is missing from the bottom of gauge mechanism. Any thoughts of a replacement? Can be makeshift.

wine bottle cork . drink the wine first then drill hole to mount then coat it with your favorite.

That’s works for me.

Mumbles,
How long did you have your running to get it that clean? Mine is just as bad, maybe a little worse

Guys,
John has my tall tank now (after shipping today) It has been vatted twice, then a third time at the plater’s dipped in nickel. It will never rust again + sent him 3 tank tops with good gage’s & floats + more.
Help John out finding replacement diaphram & screen. He will now have everything but those & any other small parts needed please,
Jeff

John,
Sorry about the ship costs! I remember when a .6 cent stamp now .50 cent to mail a letter.
Garry sent me a parts drawing for the tank & I forwarded to your e-mail & kept one for me.
ENJOY!! & thank you Garry!!
Jeff
Forgot an item, Garry instructs to use 100×100 copper screen mesh found at hobby stores. The hobby stores call it
copper mesh. Be careful if soldering where the bolt holes go as solder migrates very fast,
