So it looks like I have a hole in my gas tank.

It's dripping pretty good. Is there a chance it could be fixed with some of that gas tank putty stuff, or will I have to replace my 1995 Culass Ciera?

At least to me it does.

It may give you a couple of weeks.

I can't afford a replacement car. Even a beat up old $2000 junker. Shit. I should have never gone to Seattle.

It's not that bad of a job if your existing fuel tank is completely empty and you're careful not to make any sparks. Definitely disconnect the battery.

Best of luck!

I wouldn't either. Afraid I'd burn myself up.

Not only have I swapped gas tanks in cars, I've also brazed in new fittings. With flame. No problems.

To swap tanks you need to siphon the fuel out first. Then you unattach the fuel line(s) and the gauge sensor and fuel pump wires (if yours has an in-tank pump). Unbolt the tank (or the straps holding the tank), lower tank and remove. You will have to swap over the gauge sending unit and the pump. Then reverse the process.

Sure, this is easy if you have tools and experience, Not so easy if you don't but it ain't hard for a mechanic and you just need to find one who is good. A bad mechanic might hurt himself. A good mechanic can do this swap in an hour with no flames.

You are in Wisconsin? I bet you can find a gas tank in a junkyard. But the ones on Ebay are fine. I put one of those in my '58 Ford. Good quality steel, made just like the original, all of my external parts fit into it perfectly.

I have no experience with the putty or epoxy temp solutions but it's don't hurt much to try. none of them are permanent so you will have to deal with replacing it sooner or later.

You have to replace it daily though. It dries out and falls off.

They sell epoxy especially for that.

I've used it before. Sometimes it lasts, sometimes not.

It's worth a shot.

Make sure you get the kind for gas and oil applications.
