dent in tank

[BiG DoM]

Any suggestions in getting a small, shallowish dent out petrol tank? Could probably get my hand to it to try push it out if I took the filter etc out the filler cap. What about pulling it out - is this not what the bodywork guys do - should I take it to them? It is too small to use ye old sink plunger on it!

bodge a rubber bung onto a air line and blow it out

you could use a long tyre lever in through the petrol cap - no sharp edges though.
Alternatively - theres a few companies that specialize in car panel dent removal - dent devils for instance.
About £40 a pop

There was a thread about this a while ago. I think that if you take the tank off, underneath it you can remove the sensor plate or something. Vague I know, but thats me.
