Suzuki Samurai Gas Tank Clean out & coat & Install 2 of 2

This is a how-to on cleaning out a gas tank that has heavy rusted. I used white vinegar for a week and then neutralized all the vinegar with baking soda and water and then pressure washed the inside of the gas tank. Then I used a quart of RedKote to coat the inside of the gas tank and stop any future rust from occurring. Also for the outside of the gas tank and the skid plate, I used high-zinc rusty metal primer and truck bed liner which would make it nearly impervious to stones chipping the paint and causing rust. Rust is you number 1 enemy. Use heavy grease on all the bolts when reinstalling the gas tank and skid plate to make sure they can be removed easily later on if needed.
