Make sure you blow out the vent tube. They are prone to collecting debris when a tank has been sitting around!

Thanks for that. It's little bits of info like that that make this site so good for the novice wrenchers like myself

Yeah, no problem. I blew it out down from the hole at the gas cap with compressed air - you wouldn't believe the crud that came out of an NOS tank...
