The Ford Barn

I have a 1929 Tudor Sedan that I am now trying to get running and mechanically sound so that I can drive and enjoy it while fully restoring a 1930 standard coupe. When I looked in the gas tank, which I thought had been drained long ago, I found it still has quite a bit of very old gas in it. Some of it obviously has started to gel and become solid. Is there anything that I can pour into the tank to dissolve the old stuff. I do not want to remove the tank and do a full-on cleaning yet, if possible. Any suggestions?
