My sister has like this 87 honda that she's gonna sell me for like $150. Her husband just flushed out the tank because of the rust. It's going to be an ongoing problem-How often will this be a problem. Is it worth it.

if the tank is full of rust get a new tank,rust flakes in your fuel plug things up and your car will always work bad.

I suggest getting the gas tank rebuilt by moyer fuel tank renu, at www.gas-tank.com
I just had both fuel tanks on my 1987 XJ6 jag rebuilt and they are notorious for being the most rusted fuel tank ever designed. I can say that I am very happy with the results, it cost me $299 per tank. Yours will be less because it's a smaller car and the tank is not as complicated. Moyer offers a life time rust free leak free warranty. I have tried repairing the rust with spot welding, epoxy, etc. It's not worth all of the aggrevation. Just rip it out and have it rebuilt. Also, be sure to change your fuel filter often, and especially before you install a rebuilt tank.

Remove tank, then clean & seal it to stop the rust. Buy a fuel tank repair kit from KBS Coatings. It works!

all you have to do is get a new gas tank for it and flush all the gas lines out and you will be good to go, another $200.
