Hi Buddy, POR 15 does a great job with gas tanks, they have kits made just for that, local auto suppliers have them

Re: Leaking gas tank
If you have 3 small holes in the bottom of the tank, most likely there are a lot more almost through. JB Weld would work on the existing holes, but if the bottom of the tank is in bad shape, a coating from POR15, Redcote, etc. would be the way to go, or another tank.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!

Re: Leaking gas tank
My opinion, the best solution is to purchase a solid gas tank and hood.
As John states, once the tank develops rust hole(s), the entire bottom of the tank is usually gone.

I have an excuse. CRS.
