I have a diesel fuel storage tank (300 gal) that has a small hole in the bottom about the size of a pencil lead. Looks to be a flaw in the metal.

I patched with some permatex gas tank repair kit putty last year but it started to seep again when cooler weather hit this fall.

I hate to take it down off the stand more than I absolutely have to. Thanks in advance for any ideas (or the proper search words - my search hits seem to be for tractor fuel tank repairs).
