I have a 190 gallon fuel tank in my 24 foot Boston Whaler Outrage. It is "gummed up" from ethonal. Anyone have any experience cleaning a fuel tank in a boat through a 1.5 inch hole? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You are just getting this done now or are you just updating us now? Seems like a nice boat to have sitting around.
Have you started the engine lately because if the tank was gummed up, the carburetors probably are as well.
Don't forget the Sta-bil gas conditioner.
No, I did it right after i started the thread. I was sitting around playing with tapatalk the other night and looked at the couple of threads I had started and decided I needed to update, especially with the ethanol percentage possibly going to 15 percent. A lot of folks will have gummed up fuel cells at 15% ethonol. Figured I'd share my solution. Boat has performed great since I cleaned the tank. You are right about letting it set up, but after Katrina, and then the oil spill...we had little choice.
