I would agree with the float problem i have recently removed my tank and relined it (restored ) it and cleaned out a ton of junk which has found its way in like a foot long piece of hose where someone tried to syphon out fuel and let it drop in the tank, after all how much muck and rubbish do you think can find its way into your tank after 34 years?. Th efloat was in good condition but you can buy replacement ones
