Bill, as Alan pointed out, the sealer could make things worse. Owners have 
reported their filters at the end of the pick up tube where totally clogged 
after they had applied the sealer. In case your tank starts to rust inside, buy 
a new one.

Just my 2 (Euro) cents, which is a bit more than the usual .02$   ;-)

You could drain the fuel and drop the tank. You can empty what remains 
into a coffee can and see the amount of sediment. If there is a lot, it 
means the tank is rusting out. The choice is then use one of the kits 
offered by various suppliers to clean and seal the tank (not the best 
solution) or purchase a new steel or aluminum tank depending on how much 
green stuff you want to spend..
