How can that much gunk settle in the gas tank? doesn't gas dissolve anything
in there? In my other car, My fuel tank was spakling clean on the inside. I
rinsed it with water then alcohol and let it dry in the sun for a coulple
weeks no prob... I guess the only reason to clean it would be left over
"old" gas.
Strange....
