I want to wash out the tank as its been sitting for 20 years

I must admit after I removed mine I didn't refit one. But I installed an inline filter immediately after the fuel outlet (prior to the fuel pump). It was very difficult to refit for me, others might have some trick I overlooked.

I looked inside the two tanks that were on my car, plus two other LHS tanks. The filters were clean and looked quite serviceable in all, even though some rust was present to varying extents, so I left the filters in place. You can see some pics taken with a mini scope camera in my build thread.
