We have a very small leak in the bottom of the fuel tank on the 200. Just enough to make the whole back end a mess. It has been patched once before. Will the tank liners that are used for gas tanks stand up to diesel as well? Anybody have a good supplier?

Thanks again.

Red-kote works great. Need to get rid of all the diesel residue. If tank is clean and has no rust flush it with acetone oe MEK, Let dry and coat inside. Need to put atleast 2 quarts in to coat the in side. Id try 3 quarts if it was me

If I was going to take the tank off I'd see if a radiator or weld shop coul repair the leak.
