Bad news

It now it has a pin hole dripping water out the bottom. Time to look for a new tank.
I am bummed about it.




Here is it running and all put together.


I took the large plug at the bottom out. 18” pipe wrench and a 3’ cheater bar.
Then me jumping on it more than once to get it started.

There is a ½ rust in the bottom I may pressure wash it and determine if it one spot or it is just shot.

It had a 2-3 gallons of water in it when I bought it home. I do not know home many years it had that in it. Maybe that water was in it for years. It is 45 years old.
