Default Finally i don't have to smell gas

Noticed when i filled my tank is was leaking gas, when i jacked it up a noticed the fuel line was rusty had had a small hole rotted, fiqured that was the problem so ordered both brand new S.S fuel lines and put then on. The next time i filled it it still leaked, i dropped the tank and had a hole at the top of it, had to get a new tank. So now I have spent $400 but have a new tank and both fuel lines with rubber hoses and S.S so no more rusting, but atleast I can drive without getting a headache maybe now i can finally do my head swap
