Removeing fuel tank to clean!!!!
Hey there, i have a boat that went sank during huricane katrina, the previous owner told me that he had the tank cleaned, but there is alot of "funk" in the bottom of the tank that matches the Funk that clogged the fuel filter. I am going to pull the tank, and give it a good cleaning. Soap and water i hear will do the trick,,, any thoughts or suggestions???
And while the tank is out, is there any need to add any fittings to the tank being able to drill and clean now. I have fill hole, vent tube, line out with pick up tube, and return line and a fuel gage sending unit.. I am not sure if the fuel scrubber is realy needed but this might be a good time to add extra send and return for the fuel scrubber for future use. What size should i use, and should i get an in the tank pump for this, or use a external fuel pump??? Thanks for any help and suggestions
