[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 435332, member: 13599"] I repaired a HDPE gas tank on a garden cultivator with the [b]Permatex[/b] product. . . . . it is a one part black silicone type of product in a small tube that specifically says [b]"For Plastic Gas Tanks"[/b] on the tube . . . that was 4 years ago and is still holding strong. look up "plastic welding" on YouTube - lots of tutorials there. oh - what caused the leak you ask ?? it seems that some plastic gas tanks are made with soy oil . . . which is detectable by squirrels that will chew the heck out of any plastic product that contains soy oil.
