You can pull all the foam out and clean the inside with water or solvent. I would remove the cell from the car and flush it out. Summit sells new foam if the old stuff is crumbling.

That is the same tank I have. Pull the ring off then pull the foam out. If in good shape, reuse it. As stated earlier, take the tank out and wash it out. Reinstall foam and you're good to go!

I'm waiting for my new fuel cell to arrive. It was so old it finally cracked in several places. I'm sure living where it bakes in the trailer didn't help in that area at all.
