I just wanted to share a technique that I've been using to clean up the small metal parts (ejm taillights, mirrors, blower body, etc) that are semi to heavily rusted. I've been submerging them in very accessable muriatic acid (typical pool acid) for approximate 1 hour then using a product name rastonil that stops the rusting process. When the parts are cleaned up they come out like new except slightly grainy which I smooth out with a sanding disc on the ol' drill. Then when painted with rustoleum black they are smooth and I'm well assured there is no rust under the paint waiting to crop up on me for a while. This is my humble home remedy approach to cleaning my small parts. I would like to build myself a small sand blast box to try sandblasting but I know that last time I tried sandblasting with my small compressor and tote blaster..... well... pfffft.. I could scrape it off faster with a nail! Anyways... anyone else go through these processes and found another simple good metal cleaning process? -- Tulio Solorzano '50 F-1 (newest member to the family) '60 F-100 Custom Cab '77 280z '78 Jeep CJ5 '79 HD Sportster ------------------------------ From: "Byron Rosbrugh" Subject: Re: Date: Sat, 15 Apr 2000 07:50:21 -0500 Your local muffler shop can custom make from aluminized pipe exactly like old for a very small amount, like I paid $5.00. -----Original Message----- From: pre61-list-bounce ford-trucks.com [mailto:pre61-list-bounce ford-trucks.com]On Behalf Of Dee S.

Geoffrey, I experienced the same problem when I put my 292 back together. There is a thin annular gasket behind the oil filter adapter plate. Mine was distorted when I torqued the center nut/bushing that holds the plate on and that the filter then screws onto. I ended up draining all the oil, disassembling the adapter plate and regasketing with slightly thicker material. Also, if you make a bit of a flat side on the inside edge of the new gasket (so that it looks kind of like a "D" instead of an "O"), it seems to help prevent the gasket distortion that caused my leak (and maybe yours) Ben Thompson '56 F350 9-ft Express (Bertha) > From: "Geoffrey Janes" > Date: Tue, 11 Apr 2000 12:37:47 -0700 > Subject: Oil leak around the filter... > > I have an oil leak.

There is no engine, it used to have the flathead in it. I was just wondering if there was enough interest for parts to make this worth while. The truck is in Alberta.
