Cleaning my gas tank out preparing for E85 and white shaking the water out heard a clunk. Look at what I found. A nice quarter size of metal. Nice—

Maybe a factory installed extra?

That was an experimental anode, supposedly, to stop electrolysis from eating the tank coating.

Interesting.
How is the condition of the tank internally? An anode seems like a good idea

 

[Dhos1]

From what I can see the tank looks great. You mean that is supposed to be floating around in there?

 

[T- Type Tim]

Possibly

Chuck called it an experimental anode

He may have meant a sacrificial anode

Pretty common in cooling systems, never thought about use in a fuel system

 

[Chuck Leeper]

Experimental is what I intended to convey.

Somebody got catfished.

 

[T- Type Tim]

Ahhh
Hell

[slay]

Don't they put sacrificial metal bars of the bottom of caskets? So they break down before the casket itself. Something like that anyways.

 

[Chuck Leeper]

^^^^^ My last one did. Didn't work.

Chuck......get that fixed for the next go around
