Diesel is one way. Or you could put a drop of gas and some rocks in there and shake it around.

Gas is cheaper lol. I think i'll just use the old gas out of my old tank to clean it, its been in there since april and should be used up anyway.

Whats with the rocks?

The rocks will help knock off any of the build-up that is stick to the sides/bottom of the tank.

When we cleaned some of our older sleds we used some gas, then added some nuts in the tank to knock any debris loose. Seemed to work well...

A mountain lion roaming the prairie found a bull, killed it and ate the entire bull. With a heavy belly, unable to walk, the lion laid in the tall grass moaning and roaring. Soon a hunter, attracted by the roaring, shot and killed the lion. Moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut!
