Subject:      Operation Gas Tank: '90 into an '85
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

OK gang her's the scoop. I know that the tank on Gertie (the '85) needs to
be dropped and a resealed. However, I also think the tank is full of crud.
So I have a couple of ideas

1. A new tnak (I don't have the cash right now)
2. Steal the tank from Grover (the '90) and put it in Gertie

So aside from the tank outlet being a different diameter are there any other
differences I should expect? Filler tube size? Anything?

Also, I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions or advice on how one might
clean a tank of crud once the tank is freed from the bus. I mean are there
any particular solvents or cleaners to use?
