: I am restoring a antique tractor and would like to know if it is a safe practice to blast the gas tank. If your worried about sparks, you could fill the tank with water. If it was sealed as the others recommend, about the only chance a spark could get to the fumes would be if you blew a hole through a rusted weak spot, not likely, but I prefer err on the safe side. Filling with water is an accepted method used when welding gas tanks. :::Bonehead
