Sorry to say but when the gas reaches that state it eats the inside of the tank to the point that you will have leaks and crap floating around later when the inside of the tank flakes off. It was so bad on a 49' cad that was sitting for 10 years you could press your finger on the wet spots and go right thru the tank

drop the tank off,and clean it out and disconnect the lines and use compressed air and blow out the lines.if you got a 52 plymouth cranbrook,thats a collectors item.good car.oh,by the way,you might want to change the gas filter and put on a new fuel pump also.good luck with your project.

i own a repair shop,and you,ll need to actually take the tank off of it to get it all out of it,,it needs to be flushed out real good to be sure that you got it all out,other wise it will just clog it up bad again and the fuel lines will also need to be cleaned out real good also..good luck with it,i hope this help,s.,,have a good x-mas.,,PS a good radiator shop,can do this for you .
