Tank hasn't seen fuel in a few years...
I bought a 99 Stratos 201 PE with no motor on it. The guy I bought it from said the fuel tank was drained 2 years ago when the original motor was removed due to a blown power head. I had a 2005 200 Optimax installed on it late last fall. The Opti was run at the shop for testing and winterizing using fresh fuel and additives from a detached tank. It has been in storage since.
Here's my question... Is there anything you recommend I do before filling her up this spring? Should I be worried about gunk or build up of any sort, or residual fuel from 2 years ago? It seems like it would be difficult to get it completely cleaned out. I'm worried I'm going to flush some kind of garbage into my fuel system as soon as I fire her up. What are the dos and don'ts in this situation?
I appreciate any input.
