Below is my conversation with the customer service rep from Rust911. I just bought a gallon of your ultra concentrate Rust911. I am going to use it to clean out a 1931 Ford gas tank. The tank had gasoline that had been in it for many years and turned to varnish. Do I need to clean the tank out...

A $20 bill is too smooth due to greater circulation. You should use at least a $500 bill or better yet a $1000 bill. Sorry, couldn't resist but I do hope you get your problem fixed soon. If you have your meter connected as GRutter explained in post #67 and you still have 6V on the stationary...

1930-Pickup, Thanks for your reply. Is there a way to check for this with the car together? On a bare frame I would imagine you can run a straight edge along the top of it to see if it has sagged. Sunnybrook Farm, I did look to see if the cross member had been welded and didn't see any signs of...

A friend bought a 1930 Roadster that hasn't been started in four years. He tried to insert the hand crank to see if the engine would turn over but the hand crank won't fit into the nut on the front of the crankshaft. The front of the engine sits too high for the hand crank to engage the nut...

Re: It’s Alive (& Dry!) Joe K- You submitted while I typed! That's what I was telling him about! Next time I'll type faster!

Re: It’s Alive (& Dry!) Most Model A supply houses sell a special adapter wrench to get to those nuts.

Do any of you with a Drum Dokter have the manual that you would be willing to scan? I have a Model B-500 that I need a manual for.
