I did the same with my cx500 tank this weekend. I noticed that after the elektrolysis it increases the effect, if you fill in a mix of water and citratacid. I used 400ml of acid on the 17 liter of the tank and filled it up with boiling water.( Sorry I'm from Europe, we use metric units😅) let that mixture rest over night. The surface of the inner tank looks almost like new after that. After flushing the tank with water, use 94% ethanol (here that's called "spiritus") to neutralise the rest of the water that's left in the tank. 1 liter will be enough. Then you can use spray-oil or just fill the tank with gas.

In the USA we have Denatured alcohol which is like 90% Ethanol and 10% Methanol so you won't be tempted to drink it with no Federal Government Liquor tax on it . 1 Liter is slighter more than a quart and 4 quarts to a gallon .. so 3.78 Liters is one gallon .

A nice, clear description. I've been removing rust using this method recently, but on motorcycle chassis parts. I used a large plastic storage box with about 11 UK gallons of electrolyte, and a car battery charger. The cathode was three strips of 1" mild steel, bent and bolted together so they sat on edge along the bottom of the box. Another strip was bolted to them and stuck out of the electrolyte for the negative connection. The parts hung on steel wires from another 1" strip that I laid across the top of the box; the positive connection went to this strip. As you did, I used sodium carbonate to adjust the resistance of the electrolyte. Mine came as "Soda Crystals" from the household cleaning shelves of the supermarket. I added the sodium carbonate until the charger was working at close to its maximum; 9 amps. I kept an eye on the current, and saw that the current falls as the cathode gets coated in the same sludge you found; when it gets down to about 3 amps it's time to remove the sludge. It's soft and comes off easily as I'm sure you know, but eventually this doesn't get the current back up as the cathode now has a hard coating. An abrasive angle grinder wheel soon sorts it out for another rust removal session. I'll certainly use this process again.

Definitely one of those saved videos that I will be able to keep going back to for a solid reference ! I have always understood the process, but never actually applied it in real life application ! Great job with the video ! Extremely easy to understand !

The sodium carbonate is to lower the resistance of the water for better ionic flow. That’s all it’s for. Most water works well but adding this makes the process faster and uses less voltage to drive the current.

Unfortunately though it seems everyone has an issue with this whether it be potential for gasses building up, me using a battery, not using one the 10,000 other preferred rinsing menthods, not using a more expensive or dangerous method, not using harsh acids, you name it. I am simply showing my preferred method from doing this over the years. In regards to potential explosions here is a great video demonstrating what it takes to actually ignite.

Great content. You mentioned the process works better with hot water. A general rule of thumb I learned from high school chemistry is: "The chemical reaction rate will double for every 10 degrees temperature rise". Also, for the light rust remaining after the electrolysis is done, rinse the tank and pour in a gallon of Evaporust. Let the tank sit for several days in various positions. I have had good results with this product restoring rusty tools.

Yes this is a good idea to clean gas tanks. If you wanted to do this on an old custom, and make it last for a long time, You could then add Tank Sealer which comes in two or three colours. This is applied by poring the liquid into the tank and sealing both filler and tap holes, then sloshing it all around the inside until you have a nice even coat. Empty any excess and leave to dry. It looks best when it is done in white! Thanks for the Vid.

Fogging oil is great to use with engines. It's used a lot and outboard and inboard motors on boats. When you winterize you can bring it through the throttle body or pull each plug and squeeze some of it into the cylinders being careful not to overdo it. I really loved your technique with using the old cap to hold your bar. I thought it was genius to make sure to cut holes into it. It definitely builds up gas.

Was going to suggest cleaning up the anode a little to create some bare metal on it, but it turned out it still did the job just fine. Something I've used in the past to clean items you can't get a brush into is Shell Grit from pet stores. It works as an abrasive as you shake around with water, rather than use a chain like you said. Would obviously have to be confident you got it all rinsed out though and don't know if you'd be happy to use on a tank.

Methylated Spirits (Metho) will absorb any water instead of having to dry the tank out with heat gun. Metho mixes with water and once you pour it out you can use it again or burn it in an Alcohol burner or Metho stove. You can also use pre mix two stroke oil to coat the inside of the tanks - once you ready to fill then drain any excess as a bit of 2 stroke in the fuel even on a four stroke will have negligible effect on the plugs and cylinder of the 4 stroke. The residual oil on the inside possibly only resulting ratio something like 100 :1 once the fuel mixes with the oil. No issue in the burn and possibly not even any smoke

Methylated spirits is really good for removing moisture from tanks. It joins with the water, then you drain it, then adding some gasoline, will mix with the remaining meths. Perhaps introducing citric acid water after the electrolysis to make iron citrate which is a protective layer, would stop the flash rusting, iron oxide because both can’t be there at the same time.

Not sure if mentioned (may have missed it) but this process does give off a nasty gas, so you should do this in a very well ventilated location or outside.

Hi Tried your petrol tank cleaning using electrolysis and its worked great. I did a few checks and found that as the electrode gets dirty the current flow dropped for 10amps down to 0.5amps after 6 hour. I clean the electrode back to clean metal and the current flow was back up to 10+ amps. after two sessions the tank is looking good. I'm giving the tank one more session to remove some small spots. The tank is off a 1964 Honda CB77 which still had petrol in the from 1976 when it was last registered is Michigan USA. Its now in Scotland UK undergoing a complete refurbishment.
