I threw in some rusty pliers and when I checked they were as shiny as a bald guys forehead. Evapo-Rust seems to be working. Fingers crossed.
But that bucket was a PITA to open. My uber smart wife figured it out before I blew a blood vessel fighting with it. It was easy. (for her) She popped the tabs on the side while I was screaming and looking for a sledge hammer to bust it open. Fortunately cooler heads prevailed.
And I took a pic of the wrong side of the hood. I should have let her do it
The blue thing in the pic is my German Shepherd's Frisbee. It's only a few days old and just look at it. I wouldn't want that dog to bite me. He's strong, built like a tank. It'll be destroyed by Friday.

Cool! More pitchers please!
I watched a video by Edd China formerly of Wheeler dealers on youtube. I was pretty impressed with evap o rust. I thought it was just a commercially available mixture of vinegar, or one of the other acids. Turns out, it seems that it's much less caustic and destructive to the parts.
