July 2, 200816 yr comment_252649 Guessing that it ran well prior to the fill up, my first thought is that your filter is clogged or you got some bad gas. If you have a transparent fuel filter look and see if there is any water in the filter.If you can not do that undo your gas line where you can run some gas into a glass jar and again look for water.If there is no water, you may want to replace the filter.The next thought is that you have something that has now decided to block the pick up in the gas tank. If that is the case you will have a whole new set of questions maybe.These are what come to mind based on you just filling up the tank. Good luck.Barrie Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/28624-what-happened/#findComment-252649 Share on other sites More sharing options...

July 2, 200816 yr comment_252659 If it has a 'chunk of rust' somewhere, a fuel filter won't really help. You'll ultimately need to clean the tank or have it cleaned. Extra fuel filters are just a bandaid. My car had the same problem when I first purchased it. I did the extra filter for about a week and when it clogged again, I replaced the tank. 10 years later, no extra filter but more importantly, no problems.
