I read that this epoxy holds up to solvents, but is not supposed to be used in constantly wet areas...oh well. we will see.

The fitting I used CERTAINLY wasn't meant for the gas tank. And I had to drill out the tank hole a little bit to let it fit, but I went from a tiny bit all the way up to the size I needed, so it's not like I took a 1/2in bit and went AWOL. lol

I ended up using 7/16 (or something like that) as my size and since the next size down DIDN'T let the piece slide in, I had to use this one... The hose barb really does nothing on the gas tank. Is it supposed to be around the end of the tank like it is? Or should it be on where the fuel line hooks up to the barb? I would think it should go where the line hooks up, but there are no issues with leakage there... I'm sure the reason the barb isn't doing much is because this guy said the kart was an early 2000s spiderbox, so the plastic (im sure) is nice, hard, and brittle. LOL
