It has been sitting for years with nasty fuel in it and about 1/8" or more of gunk in the bottom. There is a 5/8" drain plug in the bottom so I can drain the nasty fuel but that still leaves the gunk. Anyone have an idea on how to remove the gunk while leaving the tank in place? | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | A little fresh gas would probably help but how about some acetone and shake it around.
Edit:... how about sticking a pressure washer wand down in it to.
