[QUOTE="Bill Thomas, post: 147046, member: 485"] If it's not too bad, The sludge is best left alone !, If it's been inside the house, I would not think it would be bad ?, There is a filter in the back of the tank, With a strange shut off valve when you take the small pipe off, So you can take the tank OFF without draining all the oil, The pipe has a special bit of tube built in the end of it that pushes a valve UP, to let the oil come down the pipe, When you screw the pipe in, If the sludge is bad, We cut a hole in the top of the tank to make sure we clean it right, There is a shop in UK that sells a special plate with a threaded centre that can be welded on to the tank, The sludge at the back of the tank is often hard !, That's why I say leave it alone ?, Not easy to clean !. Good Luck, Bill. [/QUOTE]
