I probably have another water tank if you get tired of trying to clean that one.
Trade you a 12-pack of Diet Coke with Lime for it.
Or let me mud-wrestle with your new girlfriend.
In Hollister -- Hills that is. Swimming fools. Groovy Stars.

I donno here�. I think BenT's pulling Mikes water-tank chain.

Is Mike trying to get the bad taste out of his mouth or the H2O Tank in his Syncro?

BenT is onto something with the Coke though.
Pour a bottle or two of Coke, lime cannot hurt just another form of acetic acid, into the tank.
Swirl for awhile, drain and flush with plenty of fresh water. Freshens a stale or sour tank.

Fail that, get BenT to mud-wrestle your girlfriend inside that Tank�.
Mud, sweat and tears will take off all sorts of hard water stains�

I do agree with Alistair's cure.
Some dilute Muriatic acid will get that tank pretty darn clean in quick order�

I cannot condone using Muriatic acid on BenT or to rinse the bad taste
out of your mouth Mike. Either Scotch or Bourbon do a better job�
Do not mix the two, this would be bad for your Syncro.
