Must say that i've removed a good pint of gunk from the tank and replaced two fuel pipes that i suspect sucking air in the system.....

Citric acid 50 grams per liter warm water removed all the rust. 36 hours. Pressure washer. Flush out the remaining water with diesel. Some black metal where the rust had been but rust free :lol: She runs great again. NO hunting after 20 sec from cold :lol: Gonna put som Alron diesel additive in each...

Been thinking about that too. But what about the alloy fuel tap threads?

Thanks for both tips. Probably try out citric acid first. I have some old rusty bolts i a container right now. Need to find the right mixture

The tank is off and i have used the garden hose to get the gunk and loose bits out. Still a good amount of stuck rust at the bottom. Citric acid is a mild acid used in food like pickles, jam and fish dishes. Even in coca cola... But if you mix it really "hard" you can use it to remove rust.

Ok, here's the story. I have been restoring my Dexta. She has been stored outside the past year or so. Finally got her together with brand new fuel/primer tap new filters among other things. Bled the fuel system and she fired up with lots of smoke. Hunting like hell at all revs. Checked the diaphram...

What to use to get the f*****g rust out of my fuel tank? Citric acid? RolfA

By the way. Need more pictures from all/different angles... Maybe I can work out some plans to put out on this forum

Thanx... Off to the scrapheap To be continued.......

Looks pretty similar to me

Hi. Need pictures or even better building plans for the rear brackets on Horndraulic 502. Just bought the loader, but the brackes are missing. Anybody? All best Rolf (Norway)
