The last scuttle tank I repaired, I poked the exhaust pipe of my Austin Ruby into the filler and left the car ticking over for five minutes...it didn’t go bang when I sparked up the torch!

I’m not sure what the chemical explanation is but I was recommended to do it after thoroughly cleaning out the tank to eliminate the risk of an explosion.
