Fill the tank with 12-15 ball bearing balls. Make sure you count them when you put them in so that when you take them out, you got the same number. Make sure balls are bigger than hole in bottom of tank, so they don't lodge in the hole. Put the lid on the tank. Strap the gas tank to the outside edge of a tractor tire. Drive tractor around slowly (don't need to go fast). Ball bearings will roll around inside of tank dislodging rust and producing sandblast like effect. Do this until inside of tank is clean. Dump out rust. Vacuum. Have tank sprayed with liner if you want. Good luck.
