Excellent work. How did you get rid of all the petrol fumes and make the tank safe for welding?

[@slgclassiccars4098]

This tank has been empty for over 40 years, I didn't have a problem with that.

[@igorcossetto4779]

Insert a piece of paper into an empty tank, previously washed with water, and let it burn, the flame will wipe away any traces of fumes and you can start working. nothing simpler than that!

ça ne se vend pas neuf ce truc la?
Beau travail. 👍

non, c'est introuvable. réservoir spécifique de 2cv sahara, 700 construites donc 1400 réservoirs jamais produits...
