YEP. Rusting fuel tanks is a common fault with the 110's. It sounds like rust flakes are blocking up the fuel lines. The tanks are a pain in the arse to get out cos the captive nuts at the front of the tank try and spin when you go to undo em. You normally end up with a prie bar in behond to hold em still. Don't forget to take the guard off the old tank and put it on the new tank.
