When you say rust contamination do you mean in the fuel tank? If so that'd cause the car to stall/not start/basically starves the car of fuel intermitantly.
Does the car rev freely in nuteral? All other guages normal (temp etc)?
Check for obvious stuff first
Throttle cable is tight and hasn't come loose
Check HT leads are in good nick, no cracked/damaged
check dizzy cap has good contacts/good order
Check all engine earths, the one under the battery attached to an engine mount is a particular one prone to rusting

So many dubs so little time, so much rust
