I have an aluminum gas tank, and believe it has a 15 gallon capacity. I took the hatch off while I was painting the boat, and noticed things were very wet underneath. I believe it was because the gap was not sealed very well. I tried to see what the label on the tank said, but I was unable to read any of it. The sending unit, supply line, and another hose which I believe is the overflow/vent hose is located on top. I had the tung propped up to allow any water to drain, and left it that way overnight. When I checked the boat in the morning, there was close to a half gallon of fuel on the driveway, which had dripped out of the drain hole. It appeared the leak was coming from the vent hose and there was some excess fuel on top of the tank. I tightened the hose clamps and put the tung at its normal height, and the leak stopped. I waited before I returned the cover and sealed everything back up. Is this a problem, or should things be ok? The hoses are the tank are covered in foam, so replacing the hose or tank without hours of work is out of the question. I believe the weight of the fuel against the top and rear side of the tank caused it to be forced out of any available gap. Any info would be appreciated.
