I echo Rob's comment about being nervous... The gas in my M37 tank was so old, you probably couldn't get it to ignite if you tried, but none the less I washed the tank out 4-5 times with hot (boiling) soapy water, and then left a fan blowing air through it for 24 hours. You could still detect a very faint smell of old gas and soap after it dried out. Even after all that, I was nervously expecting some kind of a puff or other reaction when I sunk the zip disk into it to cut it open... paranoid...?
