I keep getting blocked up fuel filters in my Diesel Gem so im guessing there is probably a bit of crud sitting in the bottom on the tank.

Dose any one know an easy way to drain it and flush it out im not sure how similar the tank is to the petrol version.

Thanks

Yes, I would like to flush out my petrol tank.

Hows it done ? Does it need to be removed ?

On your fuel pump (the fucking huge one) there should be a manual hand pump. You only get a little out of it as its designed to bleed the system after a fuel filter is replaced. If you can empty the tank through the hole in the back you shouldnt need to remove it.
