Rusty tank; I like that screen idea over the outlet. If your so inclined take the fuel tank
off. Drain off the old fuel into a container.
Put in a half gallon of fresh fuel and a jumbo pack of Daisy or similar BB's. Sit on a rocking chair if its handy and swish this around in most every direction for quite awhile. Drain the fuel and BB's out into a catch basin with a fine screen to catch the rust flakes and BB's.
Repeat this process until no rust comes out.
Final rinse with some fresh fuel and allow tank
to dry out upside down.
There are some sealers that will stabilize the remaining tank interior rust and maybe some of
the other Farmall guys can share their wealth of knowledge in this area.
