Tank Restoration
Why is tank restoration so important? We believe that the fuel cell, especially for classic vehicles, is one of the main ingredients for the vehicle's success or failure. In our years of experience, one of the most common issues with Japanese vehicles, are the tanks. With a moist climate, such as Japan, it takes only a short amount of time for a tank to begin to show rust and corrosion on the inside. Quickly after, and in some cases very expensive, fuel pumps begin to to fail. This can cause additional engine problems and could even leave you stranded. We highly recommend this service which will allow the tank to be sealed and protected for the life of the vehicle.
Service
Full on, all out, tank restoration. High temp acidic internal treatment to pull off and flush out any and all rust and unwanted fragments, added with por 15 metal prep to prevent rust return, even during long standing periods of non movement. Followed by por 15's top notch tank sealer, which helps even further protect the tank by filling small divots, crevices, and pin holes where rust and leaks can occur. The sealant is rated to withstand the extreme corrosive effects of gasoline and diesel. The finishing touch is a nice, clean, hand brushed chassis coating in a color of your choosing to add to that freshly cleaned and sealed tank. (Includes new rubber o-rings, new or refurbished fuel sending unit (if required), and reinstallation.) From $200
