I hadn't thought of this.  Actually, it surprises me that a vacuum
cleaner 
could generate enough suction to collapse the tank, but then again maybe
I 
need a new one.  However, I also thought of another reason why this
might not 
be a good idea.  If there were a significant concentration of fumes in
the 
tank, an electric vacuum could present a danger of fire or explosion.
On the 
other hand, a vacuum pump like the ones used in air-conditioning, or a 
venturi type that runs on compressed air would be safer, but they I'm
sure 
could collapse the tank if not monitored carefully.

Y'all be careful out there.
