that sounds eville.. what sort of car are we talking?
if any water gets into your tank (from condensation, from the servo if they were running low etc) then it will stay on the bottom of the tank, cos it's heavier. it will sit there and happily eat away at your tank till it gets drained out..
everytime i've been in a light plane, the pilot always bleeds water out of the fuel tanks befor etake off... sometimes gets up to 500mls or so!!
if the inside of the tank is rusted, there is not much you can do, it will keep rusting unless you get it coated with something... bext bet is to swap it for a good one. will save you endless bother..
can ya get the inside of tanks coated?? anyone heard of that?
you could always get a stainless one welded up, for a few $$$$
