Default Re: gas tank leak

LOL you do what you think is best, a sealer is still a mickey mouse fix, what is your car worth? your life worth? your wifes life worth? your familys life worth, are they worth a days work to repair the tank right? you said you have another good tank, then you should be out in the garage exchanging it for the one that leaks, dont mean to sound like im preaching or giving you a sermon, any thing other than having the tank welded is just a mickey mouse fix, a tragidy waitng to happen, its not if it will fail, just when, the 31 bracket is the only reason it hasnt leaked yet, even then there is a lot of viberation on the fuel tanl, any patch will fail under those cercumstances, put a glass of water on top of the fuel tank with the motor running, it will show you how much the tank is viberating, ok enough, sorry for the long nagging post
