I also had this issue with my '86 5kcstq. The same fix Zsolt recommended
fixed mine. It is called a check value. Located on top of the fuel pump
which resides in the fuel tank. You can get the check valve from Blau for
about $25. However since you are going all the way into the gas tank I would
recommend replacing the fuel pump as well. Blau sells a heavy duty fuel pump
(with check valve already installed) for about $189 for our cars. Call them
they have an article in their latest newsletter discussing this very issue.
After replacement the noise I was getting from the gas tank has ceased. Car
runs great now.
