Re: O.T. gas tank??
Just got off the phone of a local Bike Shop
They wholeheartedly advised against using the kit.
They say after a while the coating breaks down
and clogs the carb continuously.
Is this true?

Hi Frank,
I've never heard of that, and it is a must for the old steel tanks,
used off road. I notice my lawnmower doesn't have a filter, but it would
be simple to install.

Re: O.T. gas tank??
I certainly wouldn't use the kit they sell then....
I have never heard that and I used to work for a classic Vespa Scooter
shop that recommended it on the old bikes.
As someone else mentioned, maybe try an inline gas filter.

I have used gas tank sealant on a truck tank and a motorcycle tank and
never had a bit of trouble afterwards. It is _critical_ that you prep
the tank according to the instructions with the sealant. I suggest a
handful of gravel and some soapy water to start with - shake the heck
out of it. The rocks will knock most of the loose rust off. Then you
can rinse it out and prep it with the proper chemical.
Make sure the inside is really dry before sealing - blow it out with
compressed air to make sure, then set it outside in the sun for a
while
It's not a fun job, but it does work.
You can also check with a speed shop - lots of hot-rodders have to
retstore an old rusted tank.
And then, of course, there is your friend Google:
