Today's subject: Old tractor gas tanks. In particular, one on a Ferguson TO-20. It is what could be best described as "yucky" on the inside from what I can see. The radiator shop where I used to get them boiled out has stopped doing that service. Now I am wondering what might be my best plan of attack.
This tank has baffles, so some of the old tricks of filling with gravel, strapping it to a tractor tire, and driving around, won't work...
I'm wondering if putting a gallon or so of acetate in the tank and flushing it around for a bit will do any good??
What have y'all tried and had success with recently on cleaning out old tractor gas tanks?
TIA
