Default Drilling and brazing a fuel tank

Ignoramus24437 fired this volley in
:

I sense a little bit of B/S and scare talk here.

I think that people whose tanks exploded, did nothing to purge them,
had liquids in them, and got punished.


Maybe more mis-information than BS.

Gasoline tanks are repaired or modified commercially every day, with
complete safety.

Empty, wash, dry, bake out, and purge with an inert substance.

If you can't smell the gasoline, there's not enough present to form an
explosive mixture.
