76 cj360t wont start after installing gas tank. please help !

I fear, GHTD, that you are out of gas. Go buy a gallon of gas and try again. Cheeeerist on a crutch.

If you are going to attempt to work on your bike, you are going to need to look at diagrams and learn the names of parts.

Do you know anyone with more experience who can help? That would be a great idea.

The float bowl is the bowl at the base of the carb body that holds the float. Hence, float bowl. I can't remember on CB360s if it's held with four screws or a clip, but it's likely four screws if you're looking at the right thing. Since your bike is a twin, it's pretty easy to take off your carbs if you need to.

If your tank is rusty, you should drain it and recoat it. I recommend POR-15 or Red Coat, but not Cream. Follow the directions to the letter. Running inline fuel filters is a must too. And yes, check the petcock screen for rust too. Rust in your tank will clog up everything in the fuel system, from the petcock to the carb internals.
 
Sup !
I've been looking at red kote. Think I need to use that bc even if I clean the carbs more rust will clog it up later. So, I will get some red kote. Seal it and then open up the carbs and clean that.
And no ..
I don't know anybody that knows motorcycles or cafe bikes. Cafe are not really popular yet.. Here in Dallas. Not a lot of ppl know what im talking about when I say cafe bike lol.

Well I'm going to order red kote and give it a shot. Thanks so much! I've never heard of red kote until now!
