[DeTomaso] flushing/cleaning a fuel tank in the car

[Ken Green]

 Maybe run an inspection camera through the filler to see how it looks inside?

   I've posted previously that we have a local member who passed away five
  years ago and his wife is working with us to get the car running after
  five years of sitting.


  I've not hooked up a battery to the car yet to check the fuel gage but
  know that we don't want to draw from that to try to start the car.  Not
  sure what is in the tank but expecting the worst figure there may be
  some surface rust to deal with.  Question, can a fuel tank be
  effectively refurbished while still in the car?


  Thanks
