well shes out of storage FEELING A BIT SORRY FOR HER SELF NEED TO DE-SPIDER HER

some how her tyres have held the same pressure

getting quite excited about putting her back on the road now , what I am a bit worried about is well I opened the tank and got hit with the smell I can only describe as varnish and there appears to be rust inside the tank , now do I need to do something about the rust? wont it clog the injectors?

obviously I'm going to drain the varnish/petrol

other thing is the chain and sprockets appear to be fine strill going to slap a new set on but might wait till after mot

If there's rust inside the tank I would be very careful, and by careful I mean I'm a proper fanny and a bit of a fuckwit when it comes to mechanics and I wouldn't dream running the bike with even surface rust in the tank.

Don't elevate yourself above my status....  ;)

that was my thinking that bits of rust will end up in the injectors?

well what are my options? id rather not replace the tank as its mint

I don't know if the tanks are coated inside in some way or have a treatment applied but I'd speak to a local garage and see if theres a way to safely remove the rust

OK the old school way to deal with this is to take the tank off, remove pump find a way to seal the hole the pump goes in (was easier in the old days as there was only a filler cap and tap  ;) ) put some smallish nuts in the tank and a bit of clean oil, shake it like buggery to dislodge any rust. Then thoroughly wash it out to clear the loose bits. New filters in the fuel lines and pump in this case, fresh fuel and pray.

Now the varnish smell, this is what petrol does nowadays and why bikes with carbs can be a right PITA if they have been left stood. I would suggest flushing the fuel pipes etc through with clean fuel in the hope it clears off and varnish deposits.

There used the be a product called Petseal that was designed the coat and seal the inside of petrol tanks, no idea if it is still availabe.

Good luck.

Is it acceptable to refer to your mighty stead as "The Beast" or is this also frowned upon?

Family history, came from an old motor launch of my Dad's that was notoriously a bitch to start then transferred to my first bike.
