replacing gas tank recon
Hi all,
So my gen 1 (1986) sat with a bit of water in the tank for about 4 years before I got her.
She died in rout the other day and I had her towed to the shop I like. After talking with the guys I'm thinking there's probably a problem with junk in the tank, they're still looking around to make sure. I've seen guys clean them out with marbles and CLR, and i'm sure my shop would fix it all for a price......
my question: for a novice, how difficult is it to replace the tank? looks like I can get a new one for about $150/$200 I don't have a lift, will jack stands get it up off the ground enough to drop the tank? and what about fuel lines? are those tricky to clean out? Any and all advice is appreciated. I haven't found any good youtube vids so if you have recommendations I'd appreciate it.
