I have the gas tank under the seat and the truck has not been started in ten years. Should I pull it out to clean or not before putting gas through it?

At the least, I would recommend draining the tank and cleaning the fuel filter. If you don't drain out any rust, it should be okay.

Unless you are going to keep the truck for a show truck in complete original condition. I would suggest you replace the gas tank with one that is mounted underneath in the rear of your truck to the frame. Gas tanks inside of cabs are a huge saftey concern. Also this way you know you have a new clean tank and good to go.............
