Fuel tank, replace or clean out?

[cdawgs65]

The boat has been on the hard for a few years, rebuilt A-4 in the boat now, not hooked up yet, should I think of just replacing the aluminum tank or take it out and have it cleaned and tested?

Take it to Capeway Welding/New England propeller in Plymouth, they specialize in aluminum tanks for boats.
I took my monel tank there and had it pressure tested and generally checked out, the price was reasonable and their advise and knowledge were valuable.
No sense in paying for new if the existing tank is in good shape.
