Need to drain and clean the petrol tank!
today my bike broke down and in further inspection of the carbs loads of muck has come through from my tank.
Was just wondering what the best way to drain, clean and dry the tank was?
Obviously im going to change the filter but need to know how to clean the inside as water in also in there as well as loads of muck
any help would be great!!

i dont know what others do, but i just dump the old gas, put about a half gallon of fresh gas with some seafoam in. close it, and shake the crap out of the tank and dump..repeat until what your dumping looks like what your putting in..as far as drying..just get as much out of the tank that you can, and leave it open..fuel evaporates pretty quickly..
