THATGUYCRUZ Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 I'm sure it can but your most likely going to have to drop it and take it into a radiator/fuel tank repair shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throttlesteer Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 In short, you can buy all the JB Weld, patch material that you want but nothing is really going to hold well enough to use it. Buy a new one and be done. You can look at salvage yards for one, just make sure to look at all the open lines and holes as typically when fuel tanks sit around at a yard they get dust/dirt in them. Sometimes it can't be cleaned, sometimes a good cleaning is all you need. It's a 50/50 chance. Otherwise OEM is the only way to go. www.gmpartsdirect.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THATGUYCRUZ Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Now is the best chance to buy that bad ass 75 gallon tank! People argue with me and say hell no do you know how much it will take to fill that up? But if you think about it if gas drops and you fill up and the next day it sky rockets, you will have the upper hand. I seem that tank on an episode of trucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 The plastic gas tank repair kits work well. You just have to make sure the are is clean and you dont have fuel around the area you are going to patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
