I have done this many times.first wash out tank with liwuid gunk
degreaser.flush it good with water.but tank on bench.stick
airhose in tank low preasure.leave tank sit 5 minutes.leave
airhose in while welding.no stangent fumes no explosion.a old
mortorcycle mechanic taught me that 50 years ago
filling it with co2 from a fire extinguisher works pretty good.
Argon or CO2 either one , if you happen to have welding shield
gasses on
hand . Big plus is that it leaves the extinguisher usable for it's
intended purpose .
Disn't have sheilding gas - so I just sent the apprentice out to the
safety supply to borrow a 5 pounder

Would engine exhaust work?

Yes it will
