i have heard some people say not to use tank sealer so i was just planning on not sealing it and just trying to keep it full or empty! then it will not rust...

It will still rust as long as air (oxygen) is in there. Light surface rust at first, then will get worse over time. As the rust particles start to flake off, that's when trouble starts. Don't worry about it though, it could be a decade or more before that happens again.

To Seal, or Not To Seal...that is the question. Some guy's swear by it and others swear AT it. I myself have never used it. I just clean the tank's as you did knowing that at some point in the future I'll end up doing it again. If the sealer is not applied properly (I.E. my 1931 Allis Chalmers U) it can cause More problems than the rust did.

i thought you may enjoy a "little" clip of the cat doing some work as well as a better pic of the loader!

Don't do any heavy diggin with that loader. You will bend it easily

that was kind of my thought...
