    Wanted to see if anyone had an ideas about Long-term storage of gas tanks. I have extra tanks that I'm not currently using . I was thinking of using a very light weight oil (5/30). But I wanted to dilute it a bit further to make sure it spreads across all surfaces on the inner walls of the tank. I thought of using Acetone or mineral spirts, something with a high evaporation rate to thin the oil down.Anyone have any other ideas?

    2 stroke oil. it will burn fine when you pour the gas in when you are ready to use it. just go with a quality synthetic bottle.
