My 6 gallon plastic marine fuel tank in my boat was leaking gas at the fuel gauge. I try to see if it can be fixed easily and cheaply. If you have a skiff, jon boat, small boat or inflatable boat with a portable gas tank I show you step-by-step what I did to address this dangerous leaking fuel tank and if it worked to fix my portable gas tank so it can go back in service on my boat!
Link to buy the JB Weld I used: amzn.to/32qmi5A
Link to buy a new 6 gallon tank with gauge: amzn.to/35AYQog
