Hey everyone, I want to take the tank off of my 96 F3 so I can give her a tune up, but mainly to clean the carbs and maybe the whole fuel system if I need to. I just got this bike from a guy that let it sit for months.

My questions: Is there some type of special solution to clean the inside of the tank and fuel lines with after I empty the old gas? When I take the tank off, do I have to leave a vent open so it can breathe while the gas is in it? What's the best way to dispose of the gas and what should I put it in to store/transport it? My Clymer's manual didn't go into those details.

I'm new to the art of motorcycle maintenance, only have some basic tools (getting a carb tuner tomorrow), and low on the cash flow for now. Any tips would be great. Thanks.

Fresh gas and long rides do wonders to clean an old fuel system.

She's good to go. Ain't nothin to it but to do it.
