Was nice to finally get some snow, right around 18" of wet snow and lots of huge drifts. The snow chucker worked great on the 1450 other than when I fed her too fast, only plugged 3 times but it was my doing. Bout half done and it started steering funny, I look up front and a tire is flat...again. That tire won't stay on even if it's rock hard. Took me 20min to get it 70' back to the cave. Got the 73 to finish and 15min into plowing it quits in the same spot the tire came off the 1450 <font size="-2">(need a pullin hair out gif)</font> Grabbed my meter to test everything and turns out the coil fried, so I stole the coil from FrankenCub. During all this I even shot some video to post...the snow was so bright it looks like it's over exposed so they're not even worth posting...

I tried to clean my gas tank today with muratic
acid it helped but after 40 rinses rust still kept coming out so I put rocks in and loads of rust was coming out I did that about 10 times
and it still keeps coming I think it is rusted
beond repair so I will prably have to get a new gastank
 
Lucas,

The tank has baffles in it that won't let large items go around entire tank. The baffle holes will easily let B-B size/ or smaller abrasives go everywhere. The continued use of an old rusted tank is a bad thing.

I once tried to save an oil pan on my F-150, removed it, cleaned it, and sand blasted a hole through it. I should have bought new one for $125 and saved 4 hours of my time.

You need to determine if the tank is beyond your reasonable efforts.

Jim
 
Im tierd of messing with it I think it is
beyond repair does anyone know where I can
get a new one.

Charlie,are your tanks used if so are they spotless on the inside (zero rust)
 
Lucas, I've used a gas tank sealer before on tanks that seemed to rusty to clean and had good luck. I think what I used was called "Redi-coat" or something to that effect.
