I have seen this subject posted a number of times. “J.B. WELD” Dissolves in GASOLINE. .?? Don’t know, I have never used J.B. Weld. How ever, this is what I use. (See pictures). Three 1/2” Washers bonded together with this Epoxy, and have been in Gasoline for 30 Days so far. .??? It is a lot PRICEY, but if it repairs something that can’t be had. probably worth it. So how long should I wait. ???

If you dish it out, you have to take it. Kind of like BOXING. . ??

I would suggest that Epoxy will not adhere well to a very smooth surface. Needs a 'key'.

First rule of forum debate:
• My opinion becomes truth if I can find one other person, on the Internet with the same opinion. It is 'chiselled in stone" if I find two!
• War is God's way of teaching Americans geography.

????? Only two words were in CAPS, for EMPHASIS. ?? "I don't think the Brand Name Counts" ?? Was I Bad. ?? Actually, it was one of my Lower Key Posts, not complaining, not yelling, not judgemental, just a post of "Observation". "(And I still get yelled at)" DAMN ???? Must be that time of the month. ????

The only thing I've seen that really resists gasoline over a long period of time is a product called Seal-All.
http://eclecticproducts.com/seal-all.html
Many years ago a young woman came into the service station where I worked - the mechanics had gone home for the day. She had backed into something (concrete barrier?) and knocked a small hole in the gas tank. It was dripping steadily. Aside from the obvious danger, she lived out of town and was afraid she would run out of gas before she got home. I ran the car up on the hoist (which I probably wasn't supposed to do because I was just a pump jockey) and proceeded to slather Seal-All on the dripping tank. It sealed.
The only problem was that I had Seal-All all over my hands. I never found any solvent that would touch it. It took two weeks for the Seal-All to completely peel off my hands. I looked like I had leprosy or was a lizard losing its skin. But as far as we know the gal made it home safe and sound.
