A few ways, a bunch of BBs, some kerosene and shake till your arms 'bout fall off,
thenflush again with kerosene, a magnet gets the BBs out.  A radiator shop can steam it out.
It's a hassle for sure.

Put a clear, plastic inline fuel filter in the gas line, one for a lawn mower will work.

If the carbs wern't drained, theres a good chance the carbs a gunked up.
The fuel dries up, get's like sticky grease.

Clean the tank, put the filter in, then a half gallon of fresh petrol, run
the gas line to a clear jar and take a sample.

Repeat till you get clear fuel.
Then try the carbs, you might luck out at it will start right up.

Anybody else have a good way to clean a bad tank?
