i found that jb weld doesnt like gas and heat for that matter i tried to replace part of cracked carb in the moped and it set worked for a little then ate through the jb weld within couple days

The gas tank sees no heat whatsoever though, and personally id leave it just how you have it. If you ever smell fumes, go to the junk yard and buy a new one. until then FUCK IT

Bang em if you got em

something i learned in welding school is to drain all the fuel and fill the tank with water all the way up to the spot to be welded. this will keep the combustion chamber so small that even if it did explode it wouldnt actually do any damage to anything.

a good weld to plug up the whole with no leaks is going to make the tank good as new.

good luck no matter what your solution :D

no pics sorry. it was on the top and only dropped the tank low enough to patch the hole
