I'm attempting to resurrect a 1982 Mercedes 300D Turbo Diesel.
It's been sitting at least 14 years. So I'm thinking it might be a good idea to remove and clean out the Fuel tank. I'm planning to remove the tank but don't know how to clean it out. There is rust visible at the opening (where you put fuel in). So What should I use to dissolve the rusty beasties? Solvent or do you recommend physically cleanning it out and if so with what? what do others do?
