Hi Eddie, If I knew how to, I would put a paper I collated about this subject on the forum. Call me a luddite. However, if anyone cares to send me an e-mail, I will forward this document. Restom is the one I used, available from JP Classics in Southampton, SO4 2GP. I have heard good things of Slosh from Draganfly Motorcycles, Tapox from Caswelleurope and Tank Cure from LB Restoration Services. Cheers, ET43

3 months in and my sloshed tank on me Douglas looks good
I will leave it for the winter with some so called petrol in it (but disconnect the carbs just in case)

I have just read O.B.M and seen some ads for tank sealants. One says it is ethanol resistant----- and the other says it is good for 5% ethanol, so in two years time it will fail with the 10% muck that our government is to introduce in 2013. Please read the small print chaps. At present, I am unable to view Nut/Tank clearance post page two where I think someone asked about taps. Ethanol fuel eats cork and rubber amongst other things. Goffy offers fuel proof taps. Good Luck, ET43
