I doubt gas vapors are going to be a problem. The tractor has sat for a good 50 years not, and the tank is good and dry. Dad says that they hadn't used the starting tank in maybe 10 years when they parked it either. Still it's been sitting with oil in it so I'm a little nervous about heating the cap. All I can picture is the oil managing to light on fire....What a show that would be. The plan right now is to let it soak more the way it has been for another month or so, then I'll sit it in a pan of water upsidedown and boil it a little bit and see what happens.
