[dgarner08]

i have a 2001 gsxr 600 that the gas tank has rusted pretty bad inside and i was wondering if anyone has any tips or tricks to clean it out . i really dont want to buy a new tank because it will run me around $550
any ideas?

I am resoring a vintage Porsche, and the rust worked for my suspension components. Im sure if you do this a couple times, it will work out for you... :)

Good luck!

That is one of the coolest things I've seen.
I wonder if I can find a tank big enough to stick my whole truck in...
