Guyz, the owner previous to me on my project put a resin sealant in the fuel tank,dont know what this stuff is but looks like araldite,its breaking off after i gave it the nut and bolt shake treatment,but some lumps look stuck inside,only thing i can think of is to wrap in a blanket and stuff in a cement mixer with the tank full of gravel,dont want to have chemically dipped as he had a decent job on the paint,any ideas????

Had the same thing on my old thou, bought another tank in the end and sold the other to a guy in Italy.

look on youtube

see third item from the bottom of the page

That company seems to know the score,may well be an option!,looking on you tube gave me an idea though i have access to an industrial water pressure cleaner,used for shifting blockages in drains etc if i can get that inside the tank could well do the trick !

It could well blow a hole in the tank!

I had the same problem and a big and I mean big lump of sealer was moving about in the tank. It looks like a load of the sealer collected in the bottom of the tank. I thought about cutting the bottom of the tank out, but got a chemical at a auto jumble. I guy said it may take a day or so to melt it. It took a week but worked fine. If you can wait I will get the name of the stuff or get you a tin, but it will be a few weeks until it is back on.

if its old sealer and gone rock hard or breaking off , acetone will remove it

yeah i've just used the petseal remover(from tank care products)on my LTD tank, It had hard resin type sealant in the tank(from a previous owner) worked a treat but it also found more holes than I thought the tank already had
