gas, take the tank off and remove the petcock, might as well clean that real good too.
Definately remove and clean the fuel petcock, as any crap that is in the fuel tank has almost certainly clogged the strainer screen on top of the petcock.
I like to use a solvent, such as kerosene, to clean out a gunky fuel tank. Gasoline has too low of a flash point to be safely used as a cleaning agent.
If the gas tank is too far gone to be cleaned with some solvent, rags, compressed air, and patience, I've seen replacements on ebay for as little as $ 15.00. I:I
