So please help if you can.

I was having a hard time with my 83 Camaro, I could drive it but shortly after it would sputter and die, as if it was flooding. I thought it was the Carb, per some family advise, so i had my Carb rebuilt. They guy that did it said it was full of crap so it was good to clean it out.

I took it, ran great for about 30 min then the same thing. Wen and replaced the fuel pump and filter, plugs and wires, still acted as if it was flooding. I never smelled gas so i did not think i was flooding.

Finally took it to a friend who looked at it and he found more stuff in the carb. The only thing i can think of is the gas tank has crap in it.

How would i clean and reseal my tank? or would it be better to get a new one?

 

To clean the tank you'd have to remove it and drain it

Wash it out with kerosene or diesel fuel

Get a junk yard tank to reduce down time

While the tank is out it would be a good idea to unhook the fuel lines and blow compressed air down them to blast out contaminants

 

I am having the same issues as custom13 but mines a 92 and there is a lot of rust in the tank would i be able to reuse it? will the rust come back?

 

my car won't start and the people i ask about it range from junk in the gas tank to a bad igniton module. so would that help just like a tune-up cleaning out the gas tank like that. would it help my car just like changing out the plugs wire and dist rotor and stuff.
