Hope it isn"t too late! Anyway I got to thinking, if tank was clogged with sealer, just take off the sediment bowl and use a wire or drill bit(by hand)to poke out the sealer in the tank. It may have also clogged the sediment bowl so poke in there with the wire also and blow air through to check it. I have a sneaking suspicion the clog is in the sediment bowl. I haven"t had mine apart there but have worked on some tractors that had a screen wire "tower" that went up inside the tank to catch the big stuff before it went through. when you take off the sediment bowl take a look in there and see if there is one. that might also be the problem. Good luck with it and let me know, Bob

Ok, will do. But I have some time before I try it. I have 24 hour duty starting tomorrow, so I won't be home until Tuesday night.

The inside of the tank is pretty nasty. I don't know if I want to use it even if I could get it to flow. I mean, I have a perfectly good tank just waiting to go on. It just isn't pretty and shiney.... yet. third party image

You might get it to flow and see how it does, the tank on my H looks like crap inside and my fuel bowl stays nice and clean. It may have been rusty and then sealed. I know about being tossed on what tank to use, one matches the paint that is on it but screwed up and other one useable but won"t match even if painted unless whole tractor painted. Tough call. My M had the hood and grille painted and the rest is ok shape original paint, kind of looks goofy like it is, but I bought it like that. I may get pics of it posted soon. My neigbors boys are Navy men. One was stationed at SD and other is in NCIS out east. Both were in Intell. They love it!
