Muriatic acid will do the job but you have to treat it like acid because that's what it is. Your local hardware store might carry it. I pour a little undiluted into the tank, put the lid on and rotate the tank around until all the walls are coated. The I let it sit a short time and then fill it with water and drain it several times. The fumes will burn your nose and eyes a little of you aren't in a well ventilated area. I just cleaned out a tank off of a Wisconsin V4 where I got about a coffee cup full of rust out even before I used the acid and by the time I was done the inside of the tank was shiny. Jim
