Would like some ideas about what to do with a gas tank that is sending some very fine rust particles into the fuel system. They make their way through 3 new filters in my system-one in the tank, one in the settling bulb and one in the carb. These particles when you blow on them when dry, act like dust.

I have replaced my cast iron settling bulb with a glass one to try to catch some of this rust. Within a very short time, the glass bulb is doing it's job, it picks up a lot of rust. My thoughts in putting this glass bulb in was that over a period of time, the stuff in the tank would all collect in the bulb and after a period of time, it would clean my tank.

I would like some other ideas on what to do other that taking the tank out of the car and doing a complete cleaning and maybe a lining. Is there a rinse that would get this stuff out? If so, how would a person go about it?

Thanks again for any ideas you may have.
