Ok so you say you have rust in the gas tank?
Well there may be hope.
there are gas tank sealers on the market do a google for it.
Also if any specks of rust went thrue to you carbs there is a high chance of a cloged jet.

Also gasoline turns into kinda a lacuer when uts old and this too will clog the jets.

If not already done clean inside of tank and seal it then do a complete carb cleaning.

Rust in the tank.

Put a couple a pounds of nuts n bolts in the tank, place it on a paint shaker, shake and bake for a while. Empty, rinse with gas, repaet in necessary.

Should get the flakes that were about to break free and clog ur flo.
