The old remedies are usually the best so fill the tank with a 50/50 mix of white vinegar and water, hold the Iron faceplate down and "steam" the Iron over a sink or basin until empty. This should break up and release the lime scale, then flush the tank and Iron again using Distilled Water.
It is also a good idea to use Distilled Water instead of tap water as this should reduce the lime scale build up.
If you try this method and the Iron will not "steam" feel the pipe between the tank and the Iron, if this feels cold then it is likely that the tank requires a new pump.
