        Hes been cleaning his tank by hand and has now got a gas tank cleaning machine. Never go to war with a dirty tank.

          Just something to gently slosh some solvent or something around inside. I was thinking like a teeter totter, or maybe a little gas tank swingset, maybe just a board that goes up and down on one end. Fill it half full with some solvent, some kind of small chunks of something abrasive, turn it on, come home to a shiny clean tank.

          I went to the local second hand store to see what they had.

          Eureka!! I have found it.

          A little toy rocking cradle, just the right size for a gas tank...

          And does anyone know why Photobucket isn't working lately?

                Yeah, that would work. I don't have one of those. Because it's a quad, and quads suck.

                          Photobucket is on it's ass, so now new pics. Got the motor hooked up to rock the cradle, need some kind of a track for it to rock in so it doesn't slide all over the place. Then just find my old tank hole plugs or cut a new set, and go find some kerosene.

                          It will need some better hardware eventually, but just to see how it works my home made stuff will be fine.

                            Someone told me a story about taping a tank to the solid rear axle of their pickup truck and going for a bumpy drive..
