So I have removed the gas tank as part of the transformation my bike is under right now. When I tried to drain it no fuel flowed in on, res or pri positions! I removed the tank and drained the gas through the cap hole on top. When I removed the petcock it was jammed up at the bottom with rust particles (uh oh). I used a flashlight to look inside the tank and there is some surface rust on the sides and bottom of the tank! My question is how do I go about fixing it? Anyone come across this problem and found a permanent solution to it? TIA
-side note, bike is coming along great! carb rejet is done [52.5 pilot jet, 152.5 main jet and 2 washers on the needle from Lancer's kit], K&N style filter is on, seat is modded ala DiamondJim, drilled sportster muff is on and new rear fender/brakelight, side lic. plate mount/handlebars and mini apes are ordered!! Will have pics when everything is done
