I finally got tired of clogged filters so I replaced the tank with a new one
last summer. Once the rust starts going in these old tanks replacing the
tank with a brand new one is the only permanent solution.

Thanks to all of you who helped with advice.
The car was hesitant, when I put my foot down it wanted to stop, no power,
the fuel pump was making a noise.  All this after I changed the Oxigen
sensor.
The first thing I did was to change the fuel filter.
I went for a ride and all was fine.  The filter was clogged.  Lucky that it
was not something more serious.
