The fuel tank is letting water in and i have rust in my fuel line.

On a few occasions (4-8 times), the gas pedal has gotten stuck, in such a way, that the vehicle actually accelerated. It has happened from a complete stop going up to 20-25 mph, and while on the fwy, driving approx. 65 mph. The first time, while driving from complete stop to about 20-25 mph, my wife noticed the vehicle accelerating, she turned into a smaller street, then forced the shifter into park, and pulled up the e-brake. All other times, we simply tap, or pump, the accelerator pedal for it to get 'unstuck'. *tr

I have a 1988 toyota landcruiser. There is a special service campaign (m01) nhtsa campaign #91v110000 that directs the dealer to replace the original gas tank with one with a new and improved design. I spoke to my dealer about this and they reffered me to servco pacific which is the toyota distributor for my area. I spoke with a man named fred kitajima whom is the customer service manager for servco. He told me that a check of my vin number [xxx] showed that the replacement had already been done on 05/29/1992, and that i was not eligible for any further service. He went on to say that servco puts a ten - year cap on sscs, so even if the fuel tank had not been replaced, they would not do it anyway. My vehicle has a very strong odor of fuel in the cab, so i took it to the dealer to track down the source of the smell. The technician said that i have a faulty "vapor control valve" which they are going to replace. I asked the technician what the part number was on the fuel tank that is now on my vehicle and he gave me the following #: [xxx]. I checked ssc m01 and it reads that the fuel tank is supposed to be replaced with part #: [xxx]. I feel that my fuel tank has not been replaced as stated by servco pacific and that they, servco pacific, is either negligent or mistaken. *ak *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(b)(6)
