I use steel BBs instead of nuts and bolts. Best part is I can still use the BBs to shoot at the varmints in the garden where I grow salsa veggies.

I needed a good laugh today. I love how you educate but add humor. I'm a longtime fan but first time I commented. Thank you!

New to your channel as of 2 weeks ago. I've been working on small engines for over 40 years now. I guess I was about 5 or 6 years old when I wanted to know how a 3 hp Briggs worked and tore my Great Grandpa's 1974 push mower engine apart just to see what was in it. He caught me pulling the Crank out and went and got the bull whip and said "If you put it back together and it runs and only leaks oil I will not use this on your butt". And I did and it run better then new... LOL. Only thing I got help on was the timing marks on the cam. Remember I was 5 or maybe 6. Been working on them scents. Opened a shop for 10 years in 1991. Now drive truck and use it for relaxing when home. Will retire in a few years or maybe even this year to reopen the shop. Watched a bunch of your videos and found a lot easier way to do a lot of things I was doing the hard way over the years. I have never had any training on small engines just figured it out on my own. Or read about some things in books and service bulletins, ect. Now I have you, Mustie, and a couple of others to get tips from. You are my new favorite because you make it entertaining and informative. Love it

Tanks alot, Taryl, for all you are and DO.

That’s the best gas tank cleaning and seal I have ever seen I never seen how to to do the Kote applyed every body just say well por it into your tank so I never even looked at the stuff now I will try doing thanks buddy your a smart man

Its fun the way you combine humor with instructional videos to add the fun factor.

i just got a quart of this to seal a couple of tanks on project bikes i'm working on. thanx fer the pointers.

Nice to know about that product. I have a 1953 REO which needs tank repair. Thank you.

Heck yessss. I love when you upload

Another fine INFORMATIVE & ENTERTAINING VIDEO. Cheers !

I used the red kote on an old 1986 Honda 125 4 wheeler I got. Used jb weld putty on the pin holes and 2 cotes of the red kote. Like you said it built up in the corners and took quite a while to dry but it's holding strong.

Great way to seal a tank, thanks buddy!!!

Great video, thx for sharing.

Oh no mr dactyl ! Slippers is Trying to take over the shop!

Good video!!! The nuts n bolts is pretty clever!!! U guys a pure genius!!🍺🍺

Taryl, you always make me laugh Brother!😂 I just knew slippers was going to come back wearing a red coat!🤣🤣🤣 I did learn something today, Thanks Teryl.😎👍

You guys just ain't right. And we love it! lol

Welcome back Taryl missed yaw, thought you retire to some island

You can use a chain too to clean the inside of a gas tank. That's how i do.

I love you guys , good shit . keep doing what your doing .

After this video I did my MTD tank justclike you said . RedCote is the bomb . really works nice .

I've used this successfully on small engine gas tanks. Buy some Daisy BBs pour them into the tank along with whatever cleaning agent you're using. really helps to knock the loose crap out of the tank and you can rinse and reuse the BB's on the next tank. Also another thing to help get rid of rust with the BB's is Coca-Cola or CLR. just be sure to thoroughly rinse the tank and get residues of either agent completely out.

Nice work Taryl,especially kicking Slippers out of your shop

I've used Red Kote before, great product do the prep work and good by leak👍

Gotta love the official BSA coat!!

Purple Power also removes hangnails! Love that stuff.

Tip for paint tins, get a flat head or chisel and hammer a hole in the lip where the paint lid sits in, i hammer holes around the whole tin, inch or 2 apart, that way after you pour, it drains back into the tin and then when you put the lid back on the paint doesn’t displace out of that lip and spill over, it saves wiping excess, saves paint, prevents the lid from gluing shut.

No Facebook or Instagram so keep them coming here. and there's your dinner 👍

Great video. 👍👍👍

Thank You!!

Thank You for this video. i have never heard of Red Kote Sealer before watching this video. it is Very Interesting. :)

Heyo, Taryl's back! I'm gonna learn somethin today.

Great video ! Thanks

Thanks for the new video. We know you're busy

Great vid learnd alot 👍

Its only been six days, and man, im hungry for some dinner!!

Epoxy resin takes forever to roll around but this stuff looks great. Sure I heard Slippers laugh on the way out😄

Slippers should have used that salsa to clean out the rust in the tanks. 👍

Excellent video, I just inherited a 1972 Honda motorcycle, and the gas tank looks to be in the same condition as that tank. Hopefully I can get the tank cleaned up and coated.

Red Kote is a great product. I did two motorcycle tanks with. I used nuts,bolts,and drywall screws.Packed each one in the dryer dry and no heat.I used a couple of boat cushions and old blankets. Ran it for somewhere between 1/2 to 1 hour. Great video!

Glad I got my dinner but RU-vid didn't notify me, of course I know dinner is at 9am Central time. Subbed and rang that bell c'mon RU-vid

TARYL FER PEREZIDENT !!!! We awl need a feller like Taryl up in Worshington hoo can fix any thang!

great video

Not that anyone doubt Taryl. But this man does absolutely amazing work. If he was a leader of a small engine repair cult I would be a loyal follower. He rebuilt a Briggs engine for me many many years ago.. like 15+ years.. I still have that engine and it's used daily on my riding mower. It's finally showing its age... it still starts and runs but it's lost power. All I did was change the oil on time using good oil and kept the thing tuned up. After watching this channel I went out amd got a compression checker. It's low... I'm thinking valves or rings. I would love to take the motor off and mail it to Taryl with a fat check and have him rebuild it again.

If ya got a real bad rusty tank, check out caswell fuel tank epoxy sealer. No prep, mix it up and dump it in. Its thick and you need to make sure you coated everywhere, but it will seal up everything including pin holes. Expensive but good stuff. Its tough too so the pump nozzle won't chip it and make it start peeling.

That was good. Thank you

Would this work to seal up the seam on leaking plastic 2-part gas tanks, like on rider mowers and snow blowers?

Yamaha trail bike tank has neutering style cap..1973 DT1 Muriatic acid and vinegar will burn rust . Ps nothing takes POR15 off...your hands or anything NOTHInG! I had black hands for three weeks.Lol Excellent work thanks!

Red Kote is good stuff.

I like to use chain sometimes I use chainsaw chain works good on boat tanks I mostly work on outbords great videos I like watching them 👍

Nice work as always! WHOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!! There's ur dinner!

And there went my dinner. Great video, hope to see a salsa revenge.

Caswell works great also, especially on plastic tanks. No vapor offing either.

Thank buddy I need to know that buddy I two tanks. I was going buy two new tanks. The tanks is not bad thank you so much buddy 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🙏🏼 Thank you

So I have holes where the rust ate through the tank will this seal these type holes or do I need to do something else? I was thinking of taping the outside and then use red coat to seal from the inside.

Put the nuts and bolts in the tank, put the tank in the clothes drier. Pack blankets and/or foam rubber around the tank and turn the the drier in AIR ONLY, NO HEAT. Let it spin an hour or two.

Nice !

Would that work on carb bowls that get dipped in carb dip?

Slippers really pulled a fast one this time!

Wow Red Kote is made in my hometown Alliance, Ohio!! I feel like a celebrity now!

Just used Red-Kote today on a gas tank off a generator. Love this stuff.

What kind of prep would you recommend for a new tank?

Slippers is a nut lol. 👍👍

You guys are very funny , make me laught

Will this coat over the rusted interior of an antique kerosene lantern? I'm trying to get an old Dietz 1920's oil lantern back to working condition, but the tank is rusted with a few pin-hole leaks around the bottom sealed edges and some thin spots nearer the middle.

Ah, the old "I'll stop by with a 6 pack sometime, when I got time". I've heard that one before. Salsa....hahahahah. I've used the POR 15 before but never seen the Red Kote.

The redcoat is coming, lol that one made me laugh

Good to see you again been waiting on you but will this work on plastic gas tanks because I got one that is real bad and to cheap to a new one

Tip: you can strap your tank to your vibrating case cleaner for reloading once the nuts and bolts are in the tank. a couple hours of this ( strapping the tank in several orientations) has worked well for me.

I,m using, molasses, and water, to eat rust, and a heavy dog chain, scrubber, with baling twine tail, for retrieval. I,ll try the red coat, cause Taryl, said so! Thanks Taryl!

Any tricks to get POR sealer out? I've heard acetone works but afraid to use it. I was going to put red coat over the POR as I just have one small leak...

Looks like Taryl....you've been served...🤣🤣🤣

Nice deal

Slippers the Scoudrel. Nice restove for $40.00 but I see you'll be needing your stomach pumped now. Nice tank restore video Taryl. I really do enjoy your videos.

Taryl, I tired to use red kote in my car tank. I had hell picking up my car and swirling around the liquid. Had to call 10 of my best buddies. Still dropped it on obidics little toe.

Pp is some strong stuff!!

Where's the recipe for the salsa? A little acetone & redcoat? Enjoyed the video - I always learn something new from Taryl.

I’ve been having to Red Kote so many tanks lately I made a tank tumbler. Should have made one years ago. So much easier than shaking tanks by hand. Just put it on the tumbler and let it run over night.

nuts and bolts are the best not only bc they're magnetic but bc of the sharp edges, pea gravel is bs-great vid and humor taryl !!!

Awesome yet again. Noticed a tiller, looked like a Simplicity 7016r...any videos on that? Have one that needs attention.

I love the ending, LMFAO !!!!!!

Yeeeee I know how thanks Taryl ✨✨✨✨✨⏱️💖✨

The word HOME MADE.. is the WARNING!

Cool

That old yammy tank looks like from an Rd 60- 125??? Love me some 2stroke amzoil burning 👍🤓

6:25 i wrapped my generator tank, in a quilt, with drywall screws in it; = placed into dryer, set on '' AIR ONLY '' cycle, for about 3 rounds (90 minutes or so...) then soaked it in vinegar (acetic acid, about 4 % ) for a week, or so. CLEANED ALL UP. Rinsed with de-natured alcohol (absorbs moisture, same as ethanol = wood alcohol).

i used lime away... only because its what i had and it said rust remover....it worked really good

if its a brand new tank do I still have to apply this? thanks great vid

Fun and you learn a little something

Little truck with those paint type cans. Use masking tape to make a "V" across the top where you're going to pour. Keeps paint/liquid from getting in the grooves. Still have to wipe the outside a bit. Also focuses the pour to the point of the V

I use Muriatic Acid to clean out a tank. If I need to shake something around inside to break stuff loose, I use BB's.

Does it work on plastic tanks as well pls?

Did the Red Kote hold up? Or did it rust underneath the coating?

It's time for about $40.00 bucks worth of Pepto-Bismol Taryl.(military strength) HAHA!!.

H a ha ha ha, haven't watched one of ole taryl videos in awhile,you guys still at it?

5 de mayo... salsa 🤣🤣

Where’s red coltan sell in local store or have to buy online?

Will it work on a plastic trimmer fuel tank

Well Slipper got ya on that one.
