Zombie Dart! '72 Dodge Dart

I had the same problem with my 75, when I dropped the tank I found a tiny hole in the line to the sender, fixed it but still no gas to the carb. Changed the sending unit, still not it. I had already replaced the fuel pump so that wasnt it. I Couldnt figure it out until I thought maybe it might be the fuel filter, sure enough the new one I put on clogged up. Swapped it out and then it ran like a champ.
Yeah, I was thinking if I fixed up the fuel system, I should be good. I need to clean my tank cuz all the gas that came out of the fuel filter was rusty. Like it evaporated and left a giant pile of rust. So I think my gas tank needs a good cleaning and a new fuel filter and I will be okay. A carb rebuild would surely help too, but thats currently out of the question
