That was straight molasses? No other additive?
Hmmmmm, it would appear that molasses works pretty good. However, a MUCH better use for it is making rum. I gallon of molasses, 16 gallons of water, 25 pounds of dextrose sugar, 1 pound of yeast, some yeast nutrient and 10 Camden tablets (to keep the fruit flies away) will yield about 3 gallons of rum @40%. For rust removal, I bought some "evaporust" and put some lug nuts in that had sat outside for several years on a 5 gallon pail (so they would have sat in water when to rained). They looked pretty bad. 2 days in evaporust and they came out looking like brand new.@CalgaryRodder @Admin
1 Gallon Molasses to 7 Gallons water
Stir well and drop your parts in.
Make sure you have a lid on it, it will stink after a while.
For larger panels I have seen where some folks make there own tub or even use a chest style deep freezer.
I just have a large Rubber Maid container
Sorry Frank, I cannot answer your question. My wagon does not have those tubes and I never paid attention to their location when I parted out the sedans. I will ask around. JohnOver the past weekend, opened up a can of worms.
Just behind the rear seat, the 58 Chev has drain tubes that lead from the window channel down through the floor, or I think they should go right through.
the tubes terminate just inside a pocket and make their own hole to drain out after years of corrosion.
@58Yeoman John, should these tubes originally be draining to the ground?
seems no one over on ChevyTalk knows for sure.
Going to try and beadblast the area before cutting it all out and making a patch.
Been cold the last few weeks.
Got out to the garage today and did some electrical testing.
Used my Power Probe to apply 12V to the blower motor switch, TADA it works, all three speeds. (this switch is no longer produced) would have to coble a way to get the 62-64 switch to work.
Tested the two speed wiper motor as well.
Good to know that these are working as they should.
Those tubes were more than '58. I had a 2010 Cad sportwagon which had tubes from the gutter around the sunroof. They'd fill up with bird crap every couple of years. easy fix-use the little woman's turkey baster.......marriage was not that easy a fix!Over the past weekend, opened up a can of worms.
