I would recommend a softer surface so you don't damage the tank while cleaning it. Even a couple of old rags to set it on would keep you from scratching the tank. Good info.
pour the gasline antifreeze heat,which is alcohol, in your first tank of fuel.alcohol is what will mix with both water and gas thus suspending and allowing minute amounts of water to run thru the carbs(s)
@@deathbysilence0 I just got an 82 Kawasaki kz750 not sure what model it is but I know it's the twin mine needs quite a bit of work I'm currently trying to either restore my tank which needs new patchwork welds and stuff and the whole inside and outside needs to be de rusted
Seth Foulk had mine in for a day in a half, I had some really bad varnish in mine, a brush was very necessary for me but who knows see what it looks like after you drain the water.

I left my rusty tank full of vinegar for a week, flushed it and wow! Perfecto! Thanks so much!

Try throwing in a couple of handfuls of nuts and bolt and swish it around will also help the vinegar scrub off everything
Yup! and Carpenter and Sheet metal screws. its Fun!

You sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger
DO YOU KNOW SOME BODY HAVE A 1986 hONDA mAGNA PARTS? LET ME KNOW
It didn't work for me.
Why would you decide to do this on a gravel surface.
I think he's going to repaint the tank, he didn't seem to care much about the paint.
Save’s paying to sand blast it lol
Damn 20 bucks for vinegar, baking soda and few gallons of water huh ...cost me about about $5 lol
Heat gun maybe?
Ahhhh gravel and shiny fuel tank! Nope.
Don’t do it it will damage your tank because it thins the metal and make leakage whenever u r riding on rough roads
>time spent is about 30 minutes in total
>three days later
seriously though thanks for the information :) i'm going to try this on my own Kawasaki 750
