I'm doing the process again this week on a different tank with a crack in the exact same area, wish me luck. I'll report back when it's done, i'll try to post pictures too... We really need nissan to make new tanks for us.

Actually, found this really good video.

This guy tried that patch without success.


Maybe it was his technique. But I think he's right the tank flexes per the design so any repair that doesn't flex will eventually fail.
