Another newbie question. Just bought a 73 2.0 and took it to a local Porsche mechanic to check. All is well, but he says I need a new fuel tank, as it's full of rust. Enough to clog injectors, so mus tdo something. Porsche doesn't make them any more, but he knew of a place that 'rebuilds' them @ about $400.
Ouch! Ideas? |

>When it came out, no rust inside and no paint outside.
The first place I talked to I asked if it would come repainted on the outside and they said that only the inside was affected so if the paint on the outside is OK (it is) I dont' have to worry about it. >just keep it full and DRIVE it. Those seem mutually exclusive. |
