wickiewicked240z Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 They quoted me $360 dollars to seal the 240z gas tanks and clean and paint the out side. I think is way to much money. I think I might do this myself as for fuel tank sealers system which do you guys recomend and how much sealer would i need for the 240z gas tank. here are some brands im thinking of buyinghttp://http://www.kbs-coatings.com/KBS-Auto-Fuel-Tank-Sealer-Kit-P88C38.aspxprice$57.ooorhttp://http://www.por15.com/bSPECIAL-Quart-of-Fuel-Tank-Sealer-Quart-of-Metal-Ready-b?sc=2&category=180Price $42.45or Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poortecher Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I'm looking into the same thing right now. I haven't called any shops yet, but I was referred to these two shops by the machinist I use, who is an old hot rodder. (No one knows better than them! ) Foothill Radiator, Upland CA (909) 981-4011 A-1 Radiator, Ontario CA (909) 984-7848 I'm gonna paint it myself, and just let them boil and seal the tank, and cover it with roll on bedliner. EDIT- I've heard some horror stories about some of the DIY gas tank liner kits peeling and clogging up the pickup in the tank, so I figure it's safer to have a shop do it. Though I guess there's no guarantee that they won't mess up either..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudypoochris Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I have been thinking about tanks for a while. I came to the conclusion that a fuel cell might just be better all around and less of a worry... the problem is mounting it and the plumbing (minor).

Datsun350Z Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I just bought the por-15. nice combo package. I'm doing my tank as soon as my exhaust is done. If you're still wondering in a week or three i'll let you know the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedRacer Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 You might want to check and see if you have a Gas Tank Renu http://www.gastankrenu.com/ dealer near you. I had them do my tank six years ago and it's worked fine ever since. At the time they charged me $175 and it was well worth it. Interesting process and they provide a nationwide lifetime warranty.

wickiewicked240z Posted June 30, 2007 Author Share Posted June 30, 2007 would 1 quart be enough to coat the 240z gas tank:? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
