I have an aluminum tank under my rear sun deck that has a leak. After pressure testing I see it is at the top where a sending unit would be. This is just a cap screwed into the tank with a gasket. No sending unit is there. I cannot remove the screws they are stripped in the threads and just spin. My question is seeing this is not really a below deck tank and is ventilated well. Would it be advisable to epoxy the cover to seal the leak permanently? I am looking into a new tank but the cost would be much more than the epoxy gas tank repair. If this were in a bilge I wouldn't be asking.
