RE: My '57 A and its fuel system...
As you all know, I am almost finished with my 4 year frame off. In the process I cleaned out the petrol tank by soaking and sloshing gas in it to clean out as much of the tar that was in the tank but obviously this was not enough.
The engine runs well but when the fuel gets low it starves out. I have removed the fuel line at the back carb and, with the fuel pump on, nothing is delivered...
Sooo, the question... Is there a chemical that I can put into the tank while it is still installed and feeding the carbs, that will disolve the tar and not damage the engine/carb/fuel pump ???
If necessary, I will remove the tank and use something else but REALLY wanted to avoid that effort...
Thanks...
