Generally $25-$40 on the right coast!......Eastwoods tank membrane/sealer(internally) would be a good idea after cleaning it, I've sealed all my tanks with it, never a problem afterwards,....don't be in a rush, as the sealer takes about 3-5 days to cure fully,.....I've inspected the tanks years later with no peeling, or build up in them,......use the white sealer, as they have/ had several different kind

save some bucks, do it yourself. take it to your local carwash.remove the sending unit,use the high presure wand, blast from both holes. if its crusty/rusty/flaking its shot and needs to be replaced.

Sounds good!....except when the owner sees ya doing it!......those guys get pissed when you start cleaning car parts!,,,,no matter how "clean" they look .......unless you can find one of the wash/down-spraybooths that has an "engine cleaning" bay?.....haven't seen those in years due to EPA/DEM BS!

I used the Eastwood kit.Did a great job.That was at least 10 years ago and still like new inside.I let mine sit in the hot sun for 2 days to set the sealer.It was pretty bad inside when I started.Rocky
