the guy who was doing it filled it with water and hooked up a shop vac to the filler neck on the output side so it was constantly pumping fresh air in but he was also soldering in at the bottom of the tank
i dont know
just be very carefull the good ole boys around here braze up there gas tanks on these open wheel racers all the time
but there also crazy and every now and again you here about one gettin lit up pretty good
hell try the epoxy and if it dont work then something else
how dumb would it be to empty it real good set it in the open yard and light it let it burn itself out
wouldnt all the flammable vapor be gone ???
as i type i am shaking my head i dunno!!!!
be carefull

I guess you could always have one of the neighborhod kids light it

I work for the railroad and during derailments they have to cut holes in tank cars to empty them of, in some cases VERY dangerous chemicals. The way they do it is to fill the car with as much water as possible and depending on what the chemical is, the water will either float or sink, they cut where ever the water is at and there good to go. Again this is for cutting them up.
