    Default hole in gast tank!

    I ran over something, it made a noise. I thought it was just something in my backseat or hatch. Turns out, my gasoline is leaking out of my tank. I can see the problem area when I lean over and look under the car.

    Is there an epoxy or something that is made for gas tank repair that I can just spread on the tank or wherever its punctured and hopefully seal that bitch up? Its running down my driveway and smells horrid. I put a little catch can thing under there, but it doesn't really fit.

    Any suggestions?
