Re: [T3] Preparing for engine removal - was: Questions concerning fuel injection

["Hugh Lawrence" <localman26@hotmail.com>]

<x-flowed>Well, well, well.

You learn something new every day. It looks like the reason that my car was 
conking out is the same reason the fuel gauge stopped working. There is a 
significant amount of rust in my gas tank. I didn't expect that to be the 
case, but it is. There is about a cup worth of rust down there and a big 
clump of it attached to the screw on the bottom of the sending unit.

1) Anyone know a place I can get a T3 gas tank? These seem hard to come by. 
Is there any recommendable alternative to replacement?

2) Any advice on how to deal with a fuel injected system that's gotten rust 
in it?

3) Any advice on repairing the sending unit? Can I avoid getting a new one?

As always, I genuinely appreciate any and all help.
