The last item on my CO trip checklist was to drop the gas tank and replace the 33yr old hoses and make sure the tank was clean. Well I found that all of the hoses were severely cracked and there were a few surprises in the fuel tank.
I went ahead and replaced the sending unit with a shiny new one from Oriley's. During the hose exchange I found that this little guy had a little rust inside. I blew it out and bolted it back on.
I now know that the tank is clean and looks as good as new on the inside! I also know that when my Gauge says E I still have 5 gal of gas inside the tank.

I have a mile long honey do list so I decided to take my CJ 1 mile down the highway to Home Depot to get the necessities. Which tuned out to either be a good idea or bad. Not really sure how to look at it. Either way I now have a pretty good leak coming from the rear shaft seal on my Dana 300 and my rear cam shaft seal on the motor is leaking pretty good now. (I'll start a thread to pick the CJ wizards brains)
Maybe my work schedule changing was a sign from the big man saying "Your CJ ain't ready for that quite yet!"

LMAO - ok, so maybe I exaggerated just a bit...... it seemed like 10,000 hours, but it probably was less than the 7k+ estimate.

Amazing how long it takes to wet sand an entire CJ...... especially working on it here and there.....
