A leaking gas tank isn't a big deal - it just means you're losing gas just don't park near an open flame. You can drive it to the mechanic without any problems other than the possibility of running out of gas. Depending on the location, size and cause of the leak they should be able to drain the tank pour in a sealer, slosh it around to cover the leak and fill the tank back up again. It's likely not something you can sit and wait for like an oil change but it shouldn't be too expensive to fix.If you drive an older car and need to save money in the event that the tank is beyond repair you should try getting a replacment tank from a junk yard. If you can find one you can take it the mechanic and have them install it. If you don't know much about cars - and if you have to replace the tank - tell the mechanic you want to try to find a used one and have the mechanic write down the details of what you need - the guys at the junk yard can probably tell you if they have one and can direct you to it if you have to retireve it yourself.
98 Malibu cig. lighter and accessory outlet fuse location..?
If you notice the tank stops leaking when the gas is at a certain level in the tank it will give you an idea of where on the tank the leak is - say, half way up, a quater of the way up etc - just keep your gas level below that and you'll be ok until you get it fixed unless of course the leak is right at the bottom. Good luck.

Is it leaking around the tank under the tank straps? If so, toe it. If its a puncture that you can plainly see wipe off the area as best you can. Carve a piece of ivory soap to mimic the shape of the hole in the tank. Now it's going to get wet. Cover yourself with plastic and wear neoprene gloves. Using a plastic punch press it in the offending area and quickly press the prepared piece of Ivory soap into the hole. this will temporarily stop the leak.What kind of glue do you use on a windshield?
if not to far i would drive it. just don't put any more gas in the tank,they may have to remove it.just be careful where the car is parked,people may not know the problem and may throw a match or cigarette,than you will really have problems.More Questions & Answers ...
