[QUOTE="Richard_KAR_223, post: 135742, member: 814"] No I’m of the opinion that it’s best removed. Then I have had good results using a cement mixer you strap the tank in securely with long zip ties.Then after all orifices are blocked pour a known number of screws of a inch long, not too small into the tank together with paraffin. leave this lot to go round and round for half an hour then the same with the cap removed. Remove the tank and shake making sure all the screws are out and then put in a pint off thinners and see how clear it all is, then leave to dry out. Unless others have a better idea it works a treat and it’s what I had to hand. The idea of the thinners is that it evaporates a treat. [/QUOTE]
