I have a small 2-3 gallon metal gas tank that goes with a Miller Welder and Onan engine. The tank was empty for many years and the inside has/had rust in it. I cleaned the varnish out first then tried various liquids to handle the rust. I finally put a cup of gas in the tank along with about 45 steel nuts. I shook it around for about and hour until it cleaned up pretty well. Flushed with gas and denatured alcohol to get the rust residue out. I then took about a cup or so of Klein Strip Concrete and Metal Prep and poured it in the tank and rolled it around to cover all surfaces . It is suppose to remove the rust and prevent the rust from returning. I had used this previously on a little yard trailer and it seemed to work.

On this project you can only pour the metal prep into the tank and roll it around to cover all surfaces and pour the excess out. So now I am wondering what will Happen when I put gas back in the tank. chemical reaction? Thoughts?

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
