Hi guys,

I have a metal fuel tank from a Victa Imperial reel mower. Bit of rust inside with pin holes, but I was actually wondering, has anyone managed to separate the two sections ? If so, how do you tackle the folds?

I'm assuming these are sealed with solder as earlier I removed the fuel tab section with a butane torch.

No luck. I tried heating it up and wire-brushing the solder, but the folds don't seem to want to separate.
