As the first poster mentioned you can weld certain type of plastic. The real problem is figuring out what type of plastic you are working with. I have two old 1997 jet skis. The oil injection tanks are plastic. Fortunately I have switched them from oil injection to premix as one day I opened hatch to fine one of them in pieces in the bottom of the boat.
