Ok, so I kept getting suckier and suckier acceleration performance until the car just wouldn't turn over. I decided to go ahead and get the carb rebuilt (there's a place near downtown L.A. that did it for $60, which is more that worth it time-wise to me). I installed the rebuilt carb and put in a new fuel pump and filter. The old filter, by the way had a ton of rust sediment at the bottom end.
The car now runs beautifully, however, I'm still seeing a bit of rust accumulating at the bottom of the new filter. I don't want to muck up my rebuilt carb and pump. I suspect the rust is coming from the gas tank, probably dislodged by fuel additive to help clean the system. I don't see the rust coming from any other place at this point now that the pump has been replaced.
What are my options in remedying this situation, please?
I await your replies. Thanks in advance.
