Ooops. Ozzie Goat, I missed your last post. Good to hear that you chose the safest route.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the JB Weld website: "When fully cured, J-B Weld is completely resistant to water, gasoline, and about every other petroleum product or automotive chemical. For wet-surface or submerged water or gasoline repairs, try our SteelStik or WaterWeld."

I've used WaterWeld to seal a small gas tank leak on my boat. It's been over a year and it's still leak tight. Of course, the better (more permanent) solution would be to remove the tank, drain and dry it, and have a welder repair it using an argon purge to eliminate oxygen. However, getting the tank out the boat would require that I cut a big hole in the deck. So for now, I'm willing to periodically monitor for leakage.
