Tractor folk: Farm bred and raised but in the pre-diesel era. Need some help with this. I burn about 200 gallons of diesel fuel per year.

The family gasoline tank has been abandoned for about 3 years; the family diesel fuel tank has been abandoned for about 18 months. Anybody have any experience on corrosion in abandoned tanks of this sort? Is this a problem? Is there some simple way to check them or to clean them? Are there any safeguards I should take if I use any of these tanks? Much obliged. Kajun
