I was smelling fuel around my car for about a week. Could not locate it. Today I got underneath and touched a large wet spot on my gas tank. It was fuel. I had it put on a lift and this is what I find. From what I understand, the connection can't be repaired and I need a new tank because the tank might be cracked. Has anyone had a similar issue and do they know of a resolution that does not involve more than $1,000 to replace a 5 year old fuel tank?
