Fuel Tank Leak?
Hello guys,
Fuel leak. Looks as though it coming somewhere from the fuel tank just behind the area where the filling lines go into the tank (where you pump your diesel into at the station). I believe the tank itself is synthetic. Have about 3/4 of a tank of fuel at present. Any ideas where/what it could be coming from? With the tank being synthetic, I wouldn't suppose there would be an actual leak in the tank itself, right?
Any input is appreciated!

the tank has some plastic nipples on the top that connect to flexible lines via quick connects and then to the metal lines on the frame. The nipples on the fuel pickup can leak, as well as a cracked hose or rusted fuel lines. Best bet is to pull the tank down.
Its not bad. see if you cant get a motorcycle jack for the job, its safer.
