Have the fill and vent hoses ever been replaced? 1986 is pre-ethanol rated fuel lines, I would replace those if you smell gas. I would also run a hose and flood the rigging tunnel and across the top of the tank, then open all the access ports and let is dry out. If there is still a smell of gas once it's fully flushed and dry I would pull the tank cover.
