Hi,
The fuel tank on my Cavalier's started to weep a bit around the seam. Not enough to leave a mark on the drive etc, but you can smell it!
Does this mean I need to have a new tank fitted (if so, what should I expect to pay?), or can it be resin coated (if it's a cheaper option)?
Cheers,
Iain
There's a product you put in the tank, it's called Petseal or petroseal or something of that ilk. I haven't tried it myself, but I'm told it works OK.

You can use somethine like Petropatch but it's a lot safer to replace the tank as a rear end shunt could split it for example.
weld it up boy.
But empty it first.
Or leave it full before welding, could be a good show for nov 5th :)
www.buypartsby do fuel tanks which are fairly reasonably priced.

Thanks for the replies. After reading a few other stories I think I'll just get the tank replaced. It ain't the weather to be wriggling about under a car!
Cheers,

Full is probably better, although not necessarily of petrol
