Hi
Just aquired a 1982 245 sundance, has been sitting about 10 years any idea's on how or if i should clean out the fuel tank, I stuck a hose to try and siphon out any old gas but it seems dry?

Welcome aboard.

I'd start by taking off the sending unit and looking in that way. A mirror on a stick and flashlight will probably be needed. Look really well. Not just for gas, but for crap that is on the bottom and/or sides of the tank. Based on what you see, you may want to put gas in there - a little bit at a time - and keep siphoning until all the crap is out.

Can you get your tank out?
