I heard rumors that there is a recall on the 86 Cabriolet gas tanks for leaking? Anyone know for sure?

Call a dealer and see if they can check the VIN to see if it was done. If they can verify if it wasn't, I'm not sure you could even get them to do it, as parts might not even be available to do it and I don't even know if there is some sort of time limit on something like that.

And that is an old rumor, you might want to update the grapevine you listen too.

No, not for the fuel tank: http://www.cabby-info.com/recalls.htm . Please be sure to also read the note at the top of that page.
