After stuffing my face with way more food than I should have today I went out and installed a new sending unit on my CJ and I'm happy to report that my fuel gauge works at last. YAY! I went to the gas station and filled up the tank and looked closely at the filler hose where I'd spliced in a piece of pipe (to accomodate the body lift I'd installed) to be sure I didn't see any leaks. Well, I didn't see any where I spliced it but I do see a very small leak at the bottom of the metal tube that's attached to the gas tank. I'm wondering if I could somehow patch that small leak with some "muffler weld" or something. I'd rather not have to go to the trouble of pulling the whole tank and washing it out and airing it out a while and welding the spot. I wonder if JB Weld would work? Anyone know of something I could use to patch the gas leak with the tank in the car? The leak is near the top of the tank, like I said, right where that metal tube is connected, so I could run the tank down less than half full and it'd be nice and dry where it needs to be patched. Thanks for any advice!
