Hooked up a 7 gal. drain pan from Harbor Freight and pulled the plug.

That rusty 70's fuel pump has got to go too.

This thing pissed chunks of who knows what, all over the floor. Ultra rusty and full of junk.

This little guy was full of rusty brown goodness also. I capped off the fuel delivery line to the mechanical fuel pump and ordered a few of these from my local Advance Auto.

Really not that difficult to drop. I was expecting to have to deal with more of a fight. My straps and strap bolts are a rusty mess so those will have to be replaced. As will my fuel tank. After I let most of the gas drain/evaporate out, I picked it up and shook it around. TONS and TONS of crap inside. I hit it with a flashlight and the inside of this tank is a total loss.

I also figured out why my fuel level sending unit wasn't working.

GASP.

I really wish I could show you how bad the inside of my tank is, but I think the condition of my level sending unit is a fair representation.
Into the darkness...
