(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) So the upper portion of my tank has some pin holes where it sits on the upper cushon. It looks like it had been welded here before. There are three very small holes but it is enough to leak.
So my question is: Cant I put a coat of JB over the area and just not fill the tank all the way up and call it good? Will JB Weld resist the fuel or will the fuel just melt through? |

Well, I already did the JB Weld last night as I was pissed and wanted to do something. Then I thought about "what if this isn't going to work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
I will see how it works and if it doesn't do the trick I will go the POR route. I really don't want to spend another $1 on the car if I really don't need to. Just getting really tight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I told my wife she needs to get another job (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) Okay, maybe not. She works very hard. I do have some clients that are close to doing something. If they do I will be back in business of making my car better. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) |
