Fuel Tanks

[dean hanson]

I do ask more questions, now that I am wiser.

Other than gasoline, and hit and miss with a pressure washer, any ideas of a
chemical/cleaner I can slosh around in my dropped fuel tanks to clean
"some/most" of the loose fuel residue off the insides? Willing to consider
anything.

Do you ever shop online with Eastwood? I seem to remember that they have
something environment safe just for that purpose.
