Removing soak from a Gauze cistern
Drool can gratify inside a Gauze vat in distinct contrary ways. Condensation from a partially empty Gauze vat can cause problems. Sometimes if a tank has sat empty for an extended period of time the gas tank will accumulate water at the bottom. And some gas companies accidentally mix water with gasoline, which can also cause problems. If too much water is inside the gas tank, the engine will not start and the tank may start to rust. Removing the water and giving the tank a thorough cleaning will help the car perform better in the future.
Instructions
1. Remove the gas tank from the vehicle using screwdrivers or ratchets depending on how it is connected to your vehicle. Disconnect all fuel lines leading to and from the tank. Empty the tank of all gasoline if there is any inside the tank.
2. Empty the water and pour three bottles of rubbing alcohol into the tank. Slosh the alcohol around inside the tank to reach all areas of the tank.5. Fill the rest of the tank up with water. Allow the tank to sit for three days.
3. Dump the acid out of the tank into a disposable container. Make sure to dispose of chemicals at an approved toxic waste disposable site in your area. Your local municipal dump will have information on where to find a toxic waste dump. Dump a large box of baking soda into the empty tank and fill with water. Allow to sit until it stops bubbling.
4. Empty the baking soda and rinse the tank with water. Plug all holes but one with cork or rubber plugs. Stand the tank on end bracing with cement blocks or some other method of keeping the tank upright. Pour 1 gallon of muriatic acid inside the tank.
Dump the alcohol and pour in 1 quart of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). Slosh it around until it reaches every area of the tank. Dump the MEK into a container that you can take to the toxic waste dump.
