Drain the tank by gravity or force air into in with a shopvac or blow dryer. You can still restore this old tank better than new.For the bikers out there, have you done a Good Deed lately?
Get a cycle tank sealer kit sold by K.B.S. coatings. Choose the right kit size for your gallon tank. Gold Standard tank sealer will seal small pinholes & weld seams. It's formulated to seep into the metal pores and it'll expand &contract with the tank too. Sold online and you can find DIY instructions w/actual pictures there too. Website:

Since it's a restoration, I doubt the tank is connected to anything else. It will wash out. It's okay to have a little bit in there, that will go away without problems.I am thinking of buying a sport bike. I like the 600 cc bikes. Any suggetions?
No--at least not from the water. as far as the seam goes--anytime gas tanks look bad at the seams--replace it. to get the water out try turning it upside down while blowing air into it. then add rubbing alcohol--and do the sameWhich road bike do you like the most and why?

Pure alcohol can be hard to find but a bit of methylated spirits swirled around in the tank should do the trick to get the water out.

how do i get my kawasaki dakota atv in neutral?
Mate if the tank has rust on the inside of the tank it depends on how bad it is.If the rust is bad you are not going to make it worse so grab half a dozen or so nuts or bolts put in a litre or so of Methylated spirits or alcohol even fuel will do.Close it up and shake it around [not so hard that what you have put in the tank dents it]this should loosen up and remove the rust and scale inside the tank.Do this a few times judging by how much garbage comes out with the fuel or whatever you put in with the nuts.Bear in mind that if you use alcohol or spirit it will absorb the water to an extent helping dry and clean the interior of the tank.I assume you have taken out the fuel tap take this apart and clean it and the filter screen that is usually inside.
When you have done all this and are happy with how clean the interior is{remember you dont want dirty fuel inside your carbs}
There are products you can buy that seal the inside of your tank this will protect from future rust or scales as well as sealing any remaining garbage in the tank.I know of one called tank creme or similiar but depending on where you are any good bike shop should be able to help with something similiar.
If you have done a good job cleaning out the tank as I said you shouldn't have any problems with the remaining soapy water just make sure the tank IS dry a couple of days in the sun should do it.COUNT HOW MANY NUTS AND BOLTS YOU PUT IN ORIGINALLY AND MAKE SURE YOU GET THEM ALL OUT.
Good Luck with your resto I hope this helps.

If you have rust in the tank you can remove it the lazy man's way. Fill the tank with Coke Cola. Cap and let sit for a few days. pour coke into large container, place other rusted parts into that container.Wash tank out with alcohol (cleaning type) let dry. Pour a can of tank creme in, swirl around and let dry... done.

drain it all out .wash out With gas or varisol. happy trails.what kind of crankcase oil would u use in a 2003 yamaha blaster 4weeler?
I would drain as much as I could. I would then add a few ounces of methyl hydrate, swish it around with the gas cap on. Then i would let it sit for about an hour cap on. I then would drain the last remmnants of methyl hydrate by inverting the tank and letting it air dry with the cap off. Possibly you could repeat this process two or three times. Works. I have used this process before.More Questions & Answers ...
