    Well Andy, next time you weld a bung in a tank. put a 15'" piece of pipe in the bung, it will show show if you are straight or not, and you can hang on to it while you are welding it in place. and when you are cutting a hole in the tank weld a 3/8" bolt on the piece you are cutting out, hang on to the bolt, cut the hole and you won't drop it in the tank, just saying!!!!!!!

    Interesting remodeling. I guess MAS had different ideas about convenience of the fill port, and didn't think about the gauge. Or wanted too much $ to get it OEM.

    Turn the 90’s horizontal add your valves and two more 90’s looking up and down and add the tube. You could get a piece of clear sch 80 pvc tubing as a shield for the gauge tube and add a couple of brackets to the tank to hold the clear pvc . Amazon has clear pvc in stock.

    Dear Andy
    You can purchase weld spray or anti-spatter gel to put on threads and areas you don't want weld spatter to attach?
    Also, you could can run a tap through the threads and clean any spatter or True up the threads.

    You can drop a magnet in the tank. ( It probably already has one.) It will catch any metal before it gets to the pump.

  • @tiredoldmechanic1791
    @tiredoldmechanic1791 4 месяца назад +2

    I used to cut off the end of a 1/2 inch pipe nipple, screw something on to the threads to protect them and weld one nipple near the bottom of the tank and one on the top. Do an air test on each weld to check for leaks then drill a 3/16 hole through the tank wall at the fittings and add elbows, valves and the plastic tubing. That way I never had to cut a hole into the tank. the drill pulls the chips out and the small hole means the liquid doesn't leak as fast if the tubing is damaged. The larger ie tubing used, the easier it is to see.

    You should have just put a clock gauge on there. I have one on my fuel tank with no problems that always tells me what’s in there. If I read 12:30 I know I have 6” in there . If I read 1:45 I know I have 1’ 9” in there. No cutting, chopping, and grinding. 12:00 is 0 inches. The small hand is feet and the large hand is inches. It’s fun to fabricate stuff but in this case absolutely not necessary. Check into clock gauges next time.

      You can actually put a fire OUT with diesel, if done correctly. I'm pretty sure Andy has worked on enough stuff to know what can happen. Probably why he is doing it and nobody else. I knew a guy who TIG welded an aluminum tank that was full of diesel. No, it didn't even boil, let alone anything else.

    Back in the 60's and 70's, I can remember our underground fuel tank (gasoline), was around 1,000 gallons. All of our tractors were gas, with our "Big Horse" being an Oliver 1850 gas wide-front. Now, farmers pull around mobile fuel trailers with 1,000 gallon tanks.
