I need to change the diesel sender in my original 1984 aluminum diesel tank. I will have a chance to take a look inside of the tank and I predict finding some of that dreaded diesel fungus that apparently can cause problems in the future.
Has anyone cleaned the tank before? Can you share how?
Is taking the tank out of the boat even an option without taking out the whole motor in the E26-2? via Lazaret...??
I am thinking of making some kind of dialysis machine for the tank : hose to pump out > pump > filter > hose to return diesel to tank. let it do a few cycles and hopefully catch some fungus in the filter. Any thoughts on this?
PO used Biobor JF and so did I the one time I filled the tank.
Looking forward to hear your diesel tank stories !
