I just fixed a gas leak in the bottom of the tank yesterday, and I'm stumped as to what might have caused this. It was a slow drip at first - you could smell it in the driveway. But when I got underneath the car and wiped the area with a paper towel to see where exactly the leak was, it started spewing out! Turns out there was a 1/4" hole in the bottom and the flow was just being stopped by debris, dirt, etc. It's a wonder the entire tank didn't empty out on my driveway!!

A sight you never want to see!!!


(yes, this is how I drained the gas tank. Luckily there was only about a quarter tank in there.)
