I hope you fill it full of water first, otherwise this may be the last post we here from you.



i almost died when i read this! im not
that dumb, i know not to weld on a gas tank that has gas in it
okay so i need a new gas tank now.
heres the order of events.
drained gas.
removed the tank, and oops, wrecked this spring. well i have a spare so its ok.
took some paint off.
marked a piece to be cut out of some thick steel...
cut the piece out, perfect, tight fit.
things started to go wrong once i started welding. i realized, this tank is made out of super thin, tin foil like metal. it did nothing but blow holes and i spent hours grinding and welding to correct them.
the affected area grows, it leaks so much.
and heres what it was doing. so frustrating. just makes holes, i was welding on speed 1-2, minimum amps. also i was stopping and starting so much to try to keep it from melting to nothing.
so thats my story, i need a new tank. its hopeless. i dont have the tools to fix this.
