No too much crud in it, did the usual, firstly drain out the old stale fuel.
In with some paraffin give it a good old swill and drain.
In with some assorted nuts, more paraffin, shake for a very long time, drain.
Repeat.
Out with the nuts, one final swill / drain.
Also dismantled the fuel tap, which is a vacuum operated affair - lots of fine particles in it, gave it a good blast of carb cleaner, followed by air line.
Everything looks good inside the tap the vacuum diaphragm works.
Took a look inside the tank with my Lidl inspection lamp - has a long flexible stalk with a camera on the end, great for looking inside things. Tanks looks in pretty good shape inside.
Despite wearing rubber cloves my hands stink of paraffin - the smell seems to permeate everything.
Day away from the H2 tomorrow, back to it on Sunday.
Who needs a signature anyway......![]()
