[QUOTE="Stickboy, post: 1414491, member: 91162"] Even with dumping the fuel out, you will have some traces left in there. If you are just sanding/filling, I wouldn't worry TOO much about vapors. I drilled for an aux last year. Dumped the tank through the bottom, and there were still little crevices that the gas pooled up in, like the seams around the bottom sides. Let it air out for a day or so and work in a cool place so there are less vapors. If you are really paranoid, you can then fill it with water and rinse it out. [/QUOTE]
