I bought a 73 F600 grain truck last year. It’s in good condition, with a few minor problems I would like to ask about.
1. The gas tank has a slow leak. It has some kind of drain at the bottom.
I think it’s leaking around this drain plug. I thought about trying to remove the plug, of course, but a mechanic suggested that it could be rusted at the bottom, around this plug and I could damage the tank, by trying to remove it.
Any thoughts about removing this plug or
How to keep a gas tank from leaking?
I wonder why the drain is there? What was it used for?
I’m guessing that since it might only be used during harvest, that it could be used to drain the gas, since it might be sitting around a lot.
2. The windshield wipers don’t work. Do you have any troubleshooting tips?
I think it would be:
a. Check the fuses. Does anyone have the diagram for the fuse locations?
b. Connect 12 volts to the wiper motor to see if it turns.
Where exactly is the wiper motor?
I'm thinking the most likely possibilities are: It could be the switch, the wiring or the motor itself.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
