B - check out my thread in Repairs - Help removing hose barb from poly tank.....it explains why I needed better access to the tank. I've overcome all of those issues getting access, now I've pumped out the tank best I could - lots of trash in there. I am going to do some more pumping this evening.....even add a little clean gas and pump some more until I feel I've gotten most of the clutter out.....

Looking like my floor is safe from being cut - for now, thankfully!

Blue, I have a carter marine fuel pump that i picked up somewhere that has a water separating filter in front of it, i use it to polish fuel tanks all the time, I hook it up to the outlet on the tank, and pump it back in thru the fill, that way it keeps everything stirred up, so it will pump out and get caught by the filter, in bad cases, I pull the sender out, and have a piece of hard line that I attach to the end of the suction ,line, I use it to vacuum specific areas of the tank> I've left it hooked up the fuel tank, secured the pump in the boat, and drove around the neighbor hood to get it all sloshed up. It works pretty good.
