rustbucket 4 #2 Posted November 30, 2008 POR-15 marine clean and then their tank sealer to put a coat along the inside of the tank to seal it nice and fluid tight. you also want to use their metal etching prep before useing the sealer for the tank. http://www.por15.com/prodinfo.asp?grp=FTRK&dept=12 link to one of their kits.

rustbucket 4 #4 Posted November 30, 2008 mm welding or brazeing yeah but after you have the holes patched i'd use this kit to seal the inside of the tank fully so you wont have head aches later on down the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rustbucket 4 #6 Posted November 30, 2008 well i am currently doing the gas tank off my GT-14 since the PO let the non stock muffler melt into the tanks side and cause a leak. i patched the hole useing POR-15's 2 part epoxy putty and i have to say it dose hold the fuel and not a sighn of a leak. i will be useing the sealant soon and if you fallow the dirrections that come with the stuff yeah i do belive it will coat a 25 gallon tank your supposed to slosh it around pour out the excess and let dry then repeat till you have several layers of selant in the tank.

htopjimmy26 3 #7 Posted December 2, 2008 I love the tumbler design, with a little work you could use it as a tractor . Seriously, nice Power King, they were a very respectable brand R.I.P. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
