Hi all,

I just removed the 21gal metal fuel tank out of my 1991 Invader. It was 1/2 full with 2 year old fuel. Don't recall if I added a stabilizer back then. But anyway, I drained it, inside looks pretty clean aside form some slight tarnish. I was thinkin of giving it a cleaning or rinsing with Seafoam deep creep spray, and then give it a fresh fuel rinse. Not much access to play with.

Your thoughts....

Thanks,

JG
