Gas tank re-new. John Bizal @ Midwest Military hooked me up with a
franchise. Ran about $275.00 for an M38A1 tank. Works great.

Subject: [MV] cleaning out an old gas tank

I can't recall the name of it, but a Google search on gas tank cleaning
might
turn up the name of the outfit that cleans them and relines them with a
liquid
plastic material that preserves them and prevents rust. I think it may
be something like TankRenu.
