Hello all,
Per Frank's suggestion, I filled my old fuel tank with water and set it
boiling on the gas grille on Saturday.  I also added a quart of vinegar to
the mix.  Wow!  when I poured it out after four hours boiling, the water
was really dark! The first rinse was still pretty dark.  From what I can
see from the sending unit hole, it looks really clean.  There are
discolorations but no flakes that I can see.
Buffed it off and painted it yesterday. Looks nice.  I'll keep my fingers
crossed and my filters fresh for awhile.
