    "If you simply want to remove the dirt and debris on the inside, I suppose a

    strong solvent would be the way to go. Or you could dump in some coarse
    gravel
    and rattle that around in there for awhile to loosen the scale and whatnot
    first. "

    CREEM (available at MC shops and online at MC supply houses,for sealing
    leaking gas tanks) in its prep instructions suggests a length of heavy chain
    (18") be inserted into the dirty tank and then shake the tank about. The
    chain does the work of the gravel, nuts and bolts, but being heavier
    probably is more efficient at this task.
