I sent mine to Metal Rehab. www.metalrehab.com They chemically stripped and
de-rusted it. I was then able to weld all over and inside the tank without
fear. They will also get all the rust out. There will be no need for a liner
or worries about crud getting in your pickup.

Subject: Welding up a gas tank
I know that this is slightly off topic but I know someone here must know how
to do this safely.
I need to weld a crack in a steel gas tank. Tanks got old gas in it
right now. Is there any safe way to do this? I will be MIG welding the
crack. Drain the tank, fill it with water or what?
Thanks,
