OK yesterday after doing some work on the bike I found a very brown substance come out of the fuel tank... which subsequently got into the carbs and stopped the bike from running. It seems the bike that has lived outside for a few years.... although with use of bike cover.... and not having that much use... has suffered from condesation build up maybe... or just corrosion. Either way there is a problem that needs solving and would like to know .......
What is the best way to treat a corroded petrol tank ??
I shall fit an inline fuel filter. But the tank needs some love too Im thinking
 
frost auto restorations do a fuel tank seal kit which has a cleaner, rust converter and sealant to do a bike tank. or you can buy all the bits seperate. did mine a few years ago and seems ok.
