i put the tank back in fri evening after cleaning out the steel pickup line. I ended up just using a long piece of bailing wire to scrape the inside and then a bicycle pump and valve stem to push out any gunk, followed by sucking come gas through with a vac pump. I did this until fuel easily flowed through the tube. The inside of the tank looked pretty good as it was on friday so I went ahead and decided to run it.
