Hi Brian-

I may be in the minority, but I am not a fan of the internal coating produc=
t as I had one fail in my TR4 and progressively small bits of the coating w=
ould clog the fuel line and give other troubles at the fuel pump.  I did no=
t install the coating myself, just inherited it when I purchased the car.

If the tank is sound I'd consider some rust remover/mechanical agitation to=
 sort it out and leave it as is.

That is an early car, good luck with it - I'm about 40 minutes south of you=
 depending on the timing of the Cape Vincent ferry if you have need for a p=
art.  Most of my stuff is for 3As though.

Cheers
Randy
