Lately my car has been running like **** my fuel pump howling and car idling irratically, this first happened a while back when I first got the car, I changed the pump and pumps filter, along with the fuel filter. Ran great untill a week or so ago, now it started again only 10x worse jumping from 700-1100 in idle and my pump again howling!!! So I opened the tank and looked in saw a little brown... thought no big deal, then since I had only a 1/4 tank decided to feel around a little and the first thing I did was pull out a handful of rust specs almost like powdered rust!! I mean alot, I cleaned my filter on the pump because it was like caked with ****, almost looked like someone dropped it in mud!!! haven't even got to the actual fuel filter.... I know thats fucked as well. There not even 4 months old but there toast!!!! I'm a sad panda.... I'll be replacing the tank for sure, possibly lines, fuel rail, and injectors... which might not be such a bad thing.... upgrades!!!!!! any suggestions guys? let me know....I'm already getting some injectors so maybe if anyone has dual feed rail or stock rail, plus maybe a tank let me know thanks!

Drop the tank and use Por-15.

I would rather get a new tank and not worry about coating

P51 -

You're going to have to drop the tank regardless. And whether you use your existing tank or one shipped from Zoomin (or some other source), I would suggest you treat it before installation.
