WB Ute Fuel Tank Questions???

[83 WB_Ute]

Lockable caps are cheap enough matye, Id drill the pg13er.

Yeah, I was thinking I mite learn how to pick a lock... lol ;p

If all else fails, there is a hammer and a screwdriver... then if that doesn't work, there is a drill...

i just use old holden keys or any other key that will go in the lock to jiggle the lockable caps..i have not needed to drill one or butcher one off for 20 years..
good luck with the tank and the filters if its been sitting that long..i would pull the tank and clean it..at worse run a few filters and see how much crap comes through..it wont hurt the motor but will not do the carb much good..
pullin the tank isnt that major..hardest part is getting the hoses off...

Bugger... I didn't want to have to pull the tank out... but looks like I will have to...

and I have recoed the carb about 3months ago... so I probably should get the tank out.

My lockable fuel cap opens with pretty well any key, or so I found out.
And my hubbie always says that it's better to clean a tank first time round (properly), than have to clean it and fix whatever else later.:errf:
Good luck,
Evie.

Thanks mate, I'll try the key to the parts ute, and see if that works... Yeah, I'd much prefer to do it the right way now, than have to fix stuff later...

I thought a fuel filter between the pump and carby was a no no. They are meant to be on the suction side of the pump.

Those little mud wasps are mongrels for filling every little hole with mud! I have had them fill carby vent hoses on my bikes and then spent hours trying to work out why they wont go grrrr.

If its a quadrajet there will be a filter in the inlet of the carb anyway.

Nah mate, I havn't put a filter between the carby and pump... there is a small metal strainer/filter as the fuel line goes into the carby...

They are a pain in the arse... There in the fuel line, (were) in the old brake lines... and anywhere they can get to....

Forgot to mention... The carby is a Varajet

Ok, from the replys. I think I'm going to pull the tank and clean it...

What would you recommend to clean it with???
