Hi! Tony.
You don't say if the tank is installed or not?
If it's possible I would work with it filled with water to just below where
you are working.
Fuel gasses even come out of metal tanks and at 17% with air it explodes.

Subject: Europa-List: Fuel Tank Cleaning before Soldering Iron Entry
Gidday,
I am wondering after reading Paul McAllisters website about the
recommendations for preping the fuel tank before I attack it with my
soldering iron to install the Europa fuel probe (magnetic). The question is
that I was only going to drain it of fuel and wash it out with water, but I
now fear that I need to do more than that. Does the plastic absorb some of
the fuel that would make things dangerous for me if I keep to my original
plan?
