Funny you mention the tractor, I just watched that video on YouTube a bit ago, looks like it would work but I don’t have a tractor. Watched videos using muriatic acid (pool ph acid) and that worked super-fast and cut to the metal but comes with a lot of steps and the metal is stripped bare and will rust quickly. The problem with the vinegar is it takes a week, I have used that method on small engine tanks before, it really takes a while and you have to fill the tank completely with vinegar. Not sure yet which way to go.
