Make sure you really need a tank. I banged mine in the woods, and it
began leaking diesel fuel. People on the list assured me the tanks were
the same, but make sure it's for the right year range.

Anyway, I tried a stick of gas tank patch from Autozone. I ran the tank
almost empty, jacked it up to make the little fuel left run to the side
opposite the leak, and sanded the leak well. I kneaded up the dough and
stuck it on. That was in October, not a drop since.
