[QUOTE="Trikky2, post: 533466, member: 240"] Yes you are wise to clean it out. If the old fuel has gone like gravy I would suspect there is something more than just old petrol in there. Before using chemicals I would suggest putting in a pint or two of petrol and shaking vigorously. Empty it out and repeat a couple of times. Then see what it's like. If you decide to use some sort of tank lining treatment later, I would recommend doing some research first, since I have heard stories of modern alcohol additives causing problems with some coatings.
