Yep, new tank. The piece of mind will be worth the expense. They aren't very expensive really.

I am learning the V6, or rather the Hydramatic. I've been holding it in gear and the performance is much better! The power is fine. I'm a Jeep guy and they are known for their low speed torque so it isn't much different.
It can be hard to start and it stalls at the worst moments. Considering I haven't touched the carb or distributor I'm not unhappy with it. Mostly amazed it runs as good as it does!
