Vacuum Tank uh-oh

Unknown

I just finished reading Geoff's article on the vacuum tanks in the latest WTN. I have made a habit of reading this section first as it so often pertains to our Super Sixes.



I read that we are not supposed to use gasket sealer on our tank tops and I just committed that particular sin putting the tank back together for the '29.



Uh-Oh!



Geoff had it working well and I broke of the tap on the bottom where it had been soldered in. Once apart I decided to derust the innards & seal them with gas tank sealer. On reassembly, I used the blue gasket sealer recommended by the gas tank ReNu folks. It is on thin, but it's on.



Come to think of it, I used the same stuff on the gas tank sending unit . . .



Is it going to be OK or should I pay up my AAA road service policy again?
