October 11, 200519 yr comment_141315 Actually, you've got a couple of ways you can do it...DIY....POR15 after having tank hot-tanked for several days. Multi step process (Fairly cheap)Have someone else do it...(Slightly more money)Send it off to somewhere like "Tank-Renu" (Price will vary depending on condition of tank. Could be anywhere in the price range of $300-$400+ or higher) Do a search on "Tank-Renu" and you should come up with several url's for websites.webdawg1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17584-flushing-out-a-gas-tank/#findComment-141315 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 11, 200519 yr comment_141337 Been there several times. Call a radiator shop. They should be able to hot vat the tank then seal the inside for little money.Pete366H.P. 418 Torque 6cyl 240Zhttp://www.cardomain.com/ride/2116389 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17584-flushing-out-a-gas-tank/#findComment-141337 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 12, 200519 yr comment_141372 I agree with Pete. I had mine done at a radiator shop for less than $100. Worked out great. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17584-flushing-out-a-gas-tank/#findComment-141372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 12, 200519 yr comment_141412 actually, wait a couple of days, and you can see my completed tech article on POR15ing the gas tank inside and outside....I'm about half way done with it. Check it out here:http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19034The #1 thing, is get the tank boiled at a radiator shop...the tank kit from POR15 for just the sealing is like $50 and is real easy to do. I couldn't believe how easy it was, and it is permanent--you'll never have to worry about the inside of your tank again...
