Hey so a friend of mine has this large saddle tank that was out of some kind of old Ford diesel medium duty or school bus. He's willing to let it go cheap, but before I sink anything into it or trust it with my fuel system I want to ask you guys' advice on thinks to look out for and how I should go about making sure it's clean and acceptable for service. It has some surface rust but still has most of the factory paint. It has nice thick walls and I bet the inside is fairly decent. Biggest concern is fuel tank crud and black algae. It has a nice drain in the bottom and a couple of inspection plates so I may be able to get a better idea what it is all about before I commit. Any opinions are welcome, thanks in advance.
