cleaning gas tank

[suprra_girl]

hey ya'll

had a massive surging problem with the 1ggte - 7mgte swap and decided to drop the tank... found the filter on the fuel pump

and lots of random black stuff in the tank... how do you clean it out... is there a business or anything that cleans them... or what do you do to clean out your tanks?

Thanks

well i came up with a theory....

when we got the car the fuel pump relay was blown, replaced it and car ran fine... found a wire going to the boot to supply power to the wire... so i'm thinkin.....

previous owners dropped tank for one reason or another....
beside car in same garage etc they were working on a car doing panelbeating, bogging, filling painting etc
all dust entered gas tank while it was down... they put gas tank back up.. sold car... car got impounded not long after.. we bought... then did the above

rather far fetched but only way i can think of bog dust getting there LOL
