I'm looking clean out and fix up a 400 gallon gravity fed overhead fuel tank. I'm not sure exactly how long it's been sitting empty, but it was empty when I moved into the place three years ago so it's been at least that long.
It seems in pretty good shape, with no cracks and very little rust on the exterior. There's a thin coating of surface rust on the inside as well as a little bit of scaling.
How thorough do I have to clean this thing before I fill it full of diesel? Do I need to get all the rust out or is a good filter good enough?
