What is the best way to clean a fuel tank out of an 85 chevy 2500? would boiling water work?

whats in the tank?? is it all rusted?

if no rust id probrably use gas or mineral spirits.

If its rusted id probrably buy a new one. Jc whitney has plastic tanks now.

I found a steel replacement for $75 shipped on ebay.

You can get rust off of it buy putting it in a tub of water, add some baking soda, and hook up a 2 amp battery charger, + side on a steel electrode, - side to the tank. That actually works for any metal object, and most guys use rubber maid totes. The item has to be completely submerged though.

add in some bio-D. let it rest one day or two and flush it. if what goes out is crappy repete the operation a second time.

100% natural :cool:
