Instructions
1
Consult your vehicle's manual to understand how each part connects to the tank and how the gas tank should be removed.

2
Make sure there is little to no gas in the car. Drive your car to burn any remaining gas, if necessary.

3
Remove the tank, based on the instructions in the car's manual. Make sure that your tank is empty.

4
Fill the tank with fuel tank cleaner, following the instructions on the bottle. In some cases, you will need to dilute the cleaner with 1 or 2 gallons of water. Different cars also take different amounts, so refer to the bottle's instructions for guidance.

5
Let the cleaner sit for several hours to allow the solution to work on and loosen grime, rust and other deposits attached to the walls of the gas tank.

6
Clean the tank out with water from a garden hose. Clean the outside of the tank as well.

7
Repeat the first few steps until nothing comes out of the tank. Rinse the tank a few extra times to be sure that it’s completely clean.

8
Allow the tank to dry for 24 to 48 hours; be sure your tank is completely dry before reinstalling it. The tank must be completely empty and dry before it is put back on the car.
