I emptied a few tanks and gently hit it with a rubber malet to get the rust out. Then I took an old speaker magnet and put on the bottom away from the fuel exit tube to collect any future loose rust. i never had any problems after that, and as far as I know neither has the new owner. This was 3-4 yrs ago. Erik Burtis 71 Westy
