Next task on my list, clean out the gas tank. I started with a couple of rounds of Simple Green and a handful or 5/16' nuts. That worked pretty darn well for the heavy crud. 4 or 5 more hours of shaking and I think it would look like new inside. Mostly just rust left. I got lazy and decided to try electrolysis. It seems like it's really working pretty well so far. I figured I'd post a picture just cuz it goes so well with the post caption.

I definitely want the full lab report on the gas tank cleanup. I looked inside my original 38U tanks after talking to Dad, and was surprised to find them pretty clean inside.
Glad to hear V's machine is roaring to life. Any idea why the timing was out 90 degrees?
I will assume you meant to say 178 mpg in your original post, and not 178 mph... If it's 178 mph, there are some Bonneville types that would like to talk to you!
Whoopsie! Yep if that bike could do 178 MPH my childhood would have been much shorter!
