<description>Howdy all!-
I am just getting into a 1969 CB350 restore. I bought it for $375 in 1985 and fixed it up quite a bit. After about 4 years I had problems with the engine. It went into the garage and has been there ever since. 
Now about 16 years, 1 wife and 2 kids later, I am going to pick it up and get it going again. 
 It still is in good shape, but needs an engine rebuild and new seals. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for cleaning an old tank. It looks kind of rusty in there, but like an overall light covering. Can it be saved and how much am I looking at?

Thanks, 
John </description>

well i've had a few tanks with the same type of rust.  you can find a multitude of differing methods but what worked for me is phosphoric acid which can be found in most hardware stores under the name of  'CLR'.  this method is slower than using muratic acid but is safer and is not as harsh especially considering the minimal rust you have. you'll need to keep an eye on the tank and rotate it every 20 minutes or so. 

then i would buy some gas tank sealer which you can buy here:

hope that helps..good luck]]></description>
