Re: White Lightning - 68 C10 Shortbed Stepside

Yeah, I guess I'll be ordering a new sending unit!!!!! To clean out the gas tank, here is what I did:
1. I drained the tank and let it dry for a few days.
2. Knocked the tank around a bit to get any rust chunks out.
3. Dumped in a quart of acetone and swished it around a bit. After around 30 minutes, I drained the tank and let it dry for a few days.
4. After drying, the last few bits and pieces of rust came out.

Under the cab I added a see through fuel filter. The filter did turn a little brown but I didn't see any bits of rust in the filter so my steps worked!
