How to Seal a Leaking Diesel Fuel Tank?

[VonLyla]

Diesel fuel tank leaks can be welded, but if you prefer to seal it, first apply soap firmly to the leak point to prevent further leakage. Then, spread AB adhesive on gauze and cover the leaking area. Below is relevant information about diesel fuel tanks: Diesel fuel tanks are used to store diesel, with the number and capacity varying by vehicle model. The expansion space above the highest liquid level line in the tank exceeds 5% of the total volume to prevent fuel expansion due to heat absorption, which could cause fuel supply system failures. The distance between the tank's return pipe fitting and the intake pipe is relatively large to avoid most of the return fuel being drawn into the intake pipe. The intake pipe's suction point is positioned 17cm above the bottom of the Cummins tank to prevent water and sediment at the bottom from being drawn into the intake pipe. The diesel tank's bottom is equipped with a drain plug for periodic removal of accumulated sediment and water. The fuel filler cap at the top of the diesel tank has a ventilation device to maintain normal working pressure inside the tank during diesel engine operation and to prevent dust and water from entering the tank.
