Updated, see bottom of thread.
I purchased an '86 325 a few months ago that I am starting to sort out. One of the first things I needed to address was a fuel system issue that would cause it to stall and stumble.
I found that my fuel tank is pretty rusty and was clogging the transfer pump. I intend to change the transfer pump, main pump and filter.
My question is about the fuel tank. They are quite expensive, what are my alternatives? I've seen that a few people have just cleaned the rust our of theirs. Is that a legit way of dealing with the rust? Should I just bite the bullet and buy a new one? Anybody know where I can find a reconditioned tank?
Thanks
