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.

go to autozone or wherever and get some gas tank mender. then as soon as possible replace the gas tank.

I guess that's the only quickest solution. I'm looking for a gas tank now... how much do you guys.. and gals think they go for? and where is the best place to shop for it? -------------------- -Derick
