Gas tank suggestions

Post by N1VSM »

Before storing T.O.W., I drained the gas tank - what I drained was shockingly clean. Before I hook it all back up and fill 'er up gas in, is there something I should do to clean out any possible winter-crud from the tank? I peeked inside & didn't see any flash-rust. I was thinking of putting in a few gallons of gas, giving it a good shake :lol: and then draining the tank fodder gas & giving it a good inspection before trusting the cleanliness of the tank. Yes, I do have an inline filter before the fuel pump.

Suggestions?

If you totally drained the tank and let it air out over the winter (cap off), you may have a little flash rust, but it shouldn't cause any problems.
