A little while ago I posted about my SM and how I thought I had a fuel problem. Well got into it this weekend and I found out what was going on...rust.
I drained the tank and got a light and gave it a really good look over, well as good as you can though the filler. It was very clean except for a section in the rear of the tank that just had a strip of rust.
My question is has anyone had much luck lining their own tanks or would I be better off bringing it to a shop and having it cleaned and lined.
Funny, I never knew the fuel storage didn't extend all the way to the back of the tank. It surprised me to find a partition in there, then again I never have filled this sucker up yet, just 5 gallons here or there for small jobs (I haven't had it all that long).
