Goterdone, Good strategy in my opinion. I usually clean and seal my gas tanks first thing. Not for the frugal-minded, however, as it costs about $50/tank. I like the POR-15 system better than the Eastwood Company PVC-base system. Both work really well, but you have to buy acetone and muratic acid extra to use with the Eastwood product, and the POR product leaves a nice even silver color in the finished tank, whereas the Eastwood sealant leaves a lumpy white coat that yeallows with use. Some people have advocated a product called Red Kote, but I have never been able to find it. I really like the idea of the copper extension you discussed (you still get sediment even in a sealed tank). Can you elaborate a bit on how you made it? Do you tap the fuel bowl casting and thread the copper? What size holes seem to work best in the copper tube?
