Default Re: ?When to Pull the Tank?

there are basically 2 camps on this subject. Some swear the only way to clean a tank is to remove it, gut it out, and reweld it. But as you can see, many of us have had great success with just doing a thorough cleaning, through various means.


I pretty much do what lrf prescribes. I slush tons of water with a garden hose and let it flow for about half an hour. Then I use my shop vac on "blow" and dry it out for about
another hour. then I put a couple of gallons of gas in and slosh around and empty. Filters, pencil and in line and Im good to go. Ive never had a problem thereafter.
It might be the lazy mans method, but it does work.
