Trying to look in the empty gas tank, on my old WD45 I hauled in this winter, to see if I have to take it off to clean it out. I don't want to fill my fresh carb rebuild, with rust and gunk. Flash light gets in my way to see thru the hole, so I made myself a miniature drop light, from an old bulb and socket robbed from a 60's ford truck ashtray light. I spliced 2 four foot 16 gauge automotive wires, to the socket, and put 2 alligator clips on the wires, so I can clip them to the battery posts. I wrapped the 2 wires in black tape full length, so to minimize arcing on the tank hole lip. I dropped that hummer, down the tank hole, clipped it to the battery, and NO explosion! I climbed up and looked, and the whole tank was lit up inside. It works good. Later today I got the idea of a tiny periscope, and found one thru Google, at a science supply, for $19.00, and have that on order, but may have thrown $20 bucks away. OH well another toy.
