I know there's lots of additives to remove water from fuel for diesel fuel. For gasoline, I have no idea.

Other than dry gas for water I don't know what else they make.
Now dry gas is alcohol so I wonder if you where to add say a gal. of E85 what that would do?
But it looks like the tank has rusted so I would replace it if you can and get rid of the gas you have now for fresh stuff and from a different station than you et gas from as the water had to come from someplace.

Picked up a 5 gallon air tank and some 10" brackets from Lowe's, looks like I'll have to drill 2-3/8s frame holes, but two line up perfect. Still debating on mounting the air compressor in the toolbox, which makes running the air line and wires a pain or put it under the truck, but it'll be exposed to weather a bit more.

Helping a friend with a 93 F250 with 351w (5.8) engine; harmonic balancer came apart and beat the crap out of the timing cover. When he removed it, it came off in 2 pieces. Top part completely broke away from the bottom! Him & his brother did not know how to remove a harmonic balancer, so they beat & pried on it until the oil pan was a dented mess. I pulled the balancer off in 3 minutes, he was amazed like I was Criss Angel or something. I think they must have left the bolt on while they were fighting it. Anyway never seen anything quite like this. But we ran out of daylight (and it started getting cold!) so we didn't get the job finished yet. But this was what I walked into:

Dusty, I used to take my radiators to this place. It's been about 11 or 12 years ago since I've been there. The last one I took to get the whole core(4 row)replaced for a class A motorhome that we owned. I had no choice because it was an odd ball and I couldn't find one anywhere. Later on I found out that it was a custom made radiator specifically manufactured for the coach builder. Good luck...get a price before you leave it. You may be shocked and find out that it's cheaper to replace it. I have no idea what prices are these days.

Willie suggested a place that does welding, just not sure if he can/ is used to doing radiators.
