I think people like the garage projects, because they're interested continuations on a big goal. Your motorcycle in the car you're working on now we're not as epic repairs they got you a large following. You do a good job theaters in the videos, but it also is exciting when you're doing big projects to save something that feels destroyed.

Can confirm, acetone will make short work of most-anything that isn't metal, very quickly.

yes mate. our murican friends dunno about the datto.

Greg Winfield

yeah i thought the same thing. what sort of half assed job did they do BUT they fixed a hole and painted it. sounds more like a VHT rebuild.

Wait wait wait, so you're telling me you paid some guys to clean that tank up and they left a clogged line/tube on it? BAH! Whys it always gotta be the gas tanks!!! Can't wait to see any new content sir.

You may need to use acetone instead of thinner. Acetone is a degreaser, but it will remove paint. This week I worked on my diesel welder and the old fuel made a thick tar like layer in the bottom of the tank. Cleaned it right up. You could keep the gravity feed set up and try it. You may need to fill the tank enough to cover the swirl pot mesh and let it soak from both sides.

For future reference, (and for the benefit of your Australian Patrons), you need to refer to the Datsun as "The Datto" (please, thank you) ; )

There was an insane amount of garbage inside the tank, and they did do an amazing job cleaning all of that out. The only issue is that Nissan decided the swirl pot inside the tank needs a mesh filter, so whatever rust and chunks of varnish formed in there are stuck in there. People on forums are saying the only way to clean it all out is to cut open the top of the tank to get access to everything. I’m trying to avoid doing that though 😅

I do not believe that you received the work on the Datsun fuel tank that you paid for.

So is having the tank cleaned not include making sure there are no clogs in the inlet/outlet lines! 🤨 Were they just cleaning the outside? Frustrating.
