I like all the ones that have nipples.

Question, Im going to clean & seal the inside of the tank. How do you keep the sealer from sealing up the cross over tubes?

Poke a hole in it afterwards with a piece of sharpened stiff wire.

While the tank sealer is still wet you blow a little air (very low pressure) and then rest the tanks upside down.

If you can get gas without ethanol then the kreem is fine.
Ethanol will eat up the kreem and clog up your carb in the long run.

Try this

It is supposed to be the best tank sealer currently available

My FLHTP had the sealer bubbling up inside the tank. Not sure what it was.
