metal gas tanks

[CVMòóse]

im new so if this has been posted before please tell me

i know that the 94 and 95 PA (and other modle years with the same tank) are notorius for having rust in them and causing tons uf wired things to hapen

so here are so sings that u may have a rusted gas tank (and how to make sure)

- car mysituly stalls out on hot days
-unuslly hard starts on hot days
-noticible decreese in pefomance
- problems get worse as the tank get lowere on gas

first thing to try is look at the fule filter and see if there is a build up of rust deposots
next try to blow out the main fule line from the engine back twords the tank (un hook both ends and us a air hose with as litel pressur as necisary)
finaly if problem persists) try a new tank

i dealt with this problem for close to 2 summers before i finaly traced the problem(the local mehanics said "that the tank sould never have a rust porblem"what a dumb ass)

Are you saying that the gas tanks you had got rusted from the inside, but looked fine from outside? You must have gotten water in there, this is the first I've ever heard of a gas tank having a rust problem. I'm from a very humid S. Texas, so I'll keep my fingers crossed that my 92' doesn't end up with a rusty tank (not a single spec of rust anywhere else!)

living in upstatye new york and the winters we have up here my best guss is that at some point some one used a old gas can to put gas in the car and it proboble had some watter in it or somone wnet to an old gas station that had a tank that let ground water in
