    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

    reserve at 1/2 tank?

    Just fill up and reset the trip meter. go till you needed reserve and note miles on trip meter. Now use trip meter as the fuel gauge. Gets close to where you needed reserve and start looking for gas. The good old days!!!!!!

    Thing with a torch it gtrs hotter in spots as you wave the flame around. Bonfire is even all the way around. Yes the outside gets dirty from the smoke but a sander quickly removes all that. And just let it cool naturally without spraying with water

    I looked for pics too but the forum has removed them. Basically i laid tank as close to its ends across 2 cement blocks and fired some brush up under it. Watched till smoke stopped coming out the filler neck. No warpage or damage incurred

    Do what i do when paints non issue. Couple cinder blocks and scrap twigs or whatever and fire it up. Rinse ashes out and do your regular prep. RO sander and 220 grit will polish up the outside real quick after the BBQ. Somewhere i had a rebuild thread with pics of a tank roasting.

    reserve at 1/2 tank?

    I always wet calibrate the sender. Put half the stated fuel capacity in and see if needle settles on the half mark. if it reads higher then bend float arm up. if lower bend arm down. May have to remove sender and repeat a few times, but to me, reliable information matters. They are not well...
