I have fixed a couple over time and what I do is fill it with water and detergent empty it out Then do it again, then Weld it.
metal active gas, doing gas metal arc welding with a gas that isn't inert
# If you look into the flame you'll go blind, # if you touch the flame it will burn you, # your face is always hotter than your buttocks, # a cigarette always tastes better when lit by a torch flame, # always weld with a full gas tank, # you can get a tan/sunburn from welding, and # welding is fun when you weld random items together.
No. It is the easiest to weld as the metal puddles well, and the heat runs evenly through the joint.
Silicon is added to the tig rods in production. Use a gas weld rod which does not have the silicon and the weld will be full of porosity.
mig welding is Metal Inert Gas welding. it typically uses Constant voltage DC+ current. It uses a wire feeder that supplies the electrode to the weld puddle and shields the molten weld puddle with inert gas (argon/co2 blend). Filler wire and shielding gas depend on the metal being welded.
Safely? Don't mess with it. Replace it. It's too dangerous to weld it.
Yes, just do not weld on the fuel tank and unhook the battery to prevent electrical failures.
yes
Buy a new or used tank.
If you are asking such a question then you ask an adult to do it.
Please call your local gas company. They can help you with this. I welded a gas (auto) tank filled with water and sand.... it still cough on fire!
Argon gas is an inert gas and it shields the weld from any contamination from the out side air. It shields the weld and makes it cleaner and stronger.
Some parts store carry a general gas tank repair kits, I would not recomend trying to weld it. Or Even JB weld would be your best bet before finding another from a junk yard
Check your fuel tank to see if there is a leak. Especially around the weld that is usually halfway up the sides of the tank. Look for areas that appear to be wet.

circumfrencial weld is sometimes referred to as Girth weld. its just another term.
It has a maximum capacity of 17 gallons. You can safely go 475 miles.
