When I took the inspection hatch off the expected crud in the bottom which can be removed but the sides of the tank are covered in a slime. With the tanks open this seemed a good time to do a PROPER JOB!!Tue, 03 Feb 2015 12:13:37 GMTjgbaileyhttps://occforum.azurewebsites.net/FindPost1795.aspxI too would be interested in tips on this. Last time we did it we pumped all the diesel out and then sucked out the dregs with a vacuum cleaner poked through the inspection hatch. It seemed to work but think this might have ben an unconventional approach.Mon, 02 Feb 2015 21:24:39 GMTsimoncurrinhttps://occforum.azurewebsites.net/FindPost1794.aspxHas anybody had experience of how to best clean out SS fuel tanks?Mon, 02 Feb 2015 17:46:35 GMTjgbailey
