Thanks very much. I’m pleased with it.
Nope, not one of them, I think they’re all a gimmick, however though, I guess it depends on the internal condition of your tank. My tank was immaculate which made it surprising that it failed in the first place.
I drained my tank, pulled all components and left it out in the sun to evaporate off the fuel remains.
I then disconnected the return fitting, it’s advisable to purchase a new o-ring for this. Cut a strip of rag and pressed it up through the hole in the return stanchion using a 90 degree pick to ensure the sealant never leaked through.
Put some electrical tape over the end of the outlet pipe within the tank where the fuel pump/filter discharge connects to.
I bought a full pint of the POR. Pour the lot in, rotate the tank about. I plugged the top inlet fill hole with newspaper and rotated it upside down etc etc, made sure I had full coverage- spend time doing this.
Then I drained what I could via the early 85 sender port, rotated different positions to drain all dead legs and trapped areas, up ended the tank and siphoned the excess after allowing it 30min to run off using a cheap eBay fuel siphon and a turkey baster. I then rotated it the other way and put it in my airing cupboard overnight. Spend time draining properly.
Make sure to pull the slither of rag you stuffed in the return port stanchion hole before leaving it to dry, if it goes off with the rag in there, you’ll not get it out once it’s hardended.
The can said 96hrs drying time, I suspect this was to cover customers who didn’t drain properly. The following morning it was dry but I gave it 48hrs for good measure and it’s working a treat now.
Hope this helps and good luck.
