Back in my younger days, I put a rock into my gas tank at about 60
MPH.  The hole that resulted was about 1/8" long and fairly wide.  I
was leaking gas (it was coming out in a stream) so I jammed a wooden
match into the leaking slot and rubbed with a bar of Ivory soap.  Plugged
the leak for over a year (then the car went to the junkyard).  I also
fixed a pin hole seep by just rubbing a bar of Ivory soap.  Works, but
is it safe?  It was when I was a kid.  YMMV.
