Default Re: JB Weld on a fuel syste, repair

Decades ago I watched the repair of a pin hole leak in a gas tank. The area around the hole was cleaned and flux applied. Then the guy heated up a coin held with pliers and melted a blob of solder to it. He immediately pushed it over the pin hole. The solder held and that was all that was needed to make a permanent repair.
