I just finished using one of those kits on my farmall B.

After the degreaser, and any rust removal process you plan to use, flush really well with water, then use acetone or MEK to help dry the tank.

Make sure its 100% dry before using the liner material, if there's any water trapped behind it, it wont stick to the tank. Let it dry completely, even if it takes a couple days.

Then pour in the liner, tape up the openings, and tilt the tank in all directions for a few minutes until you've covered all internal surfaces, then pour out the excess and let it cure for a few days (I let mine cure for a week just to be sure)

If your oliver tank has baffles in it, make sure you thin the liner material or it wont flow past the baffles. 20% MEK mixed into the blue stuff will make it thin enough to flow. If you do that, you'll need to do 2 coats, letting it cure between coats, to get the same thickness.
