Re: [T3] gas tank leak


I had one rot through the seam once, the problem is that the foam strip that
the tank sits on absorbs salt and water, not much salt gets under there but
over the years or a car with highway use and it gets soaked and it never
gets rinsed out, hence the rust is a problem there.
