I have been smelling gas really strong for the last week. Tonight I crawled under the car and found a small hole on the bottom of the tank and when I put my ear next to it I can hear air hissing either in or coming out of the tank. Will JB Weld solve my problem or am I gonna have to go at this in a different and more expensive way. Please,any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

sorry for bringing this back from the dead but I really have a serious problem with my gas tank... it has a small leak. Can somebody shed a light on me and tell me if there is a quick solution for this? I'm really tight with money right now due to a newly purchased house so I'm not looking to replace the gas tank for the next two months. It is not leaking too much but it is leaking. My 17 months old daughter also rides the car for 30 mins every friday and sunday so I don't want to put her health in jeopardy. Please help ya'll...
