This past weekend my '60 Bugeye's fuel tank started leaking. Obviously this was an old problem as someone before me had tried to seal the area around the fuel line connection with some sort of putty, which has now started to lift away from the tank. After emptying the tank, I removed the all the putty and filled the tank with water. Sure enough, right about the 8 o'clock position is a very tiny pinhole. Does anyone know of any reliable way to repair such a leak? If so, I'd like to pursue that before buying a new tank. I've heard of people welding repairs to fuel tanks after thoroughly cleaning the tanks. Do-able?
