Tonite I have applied a layer of epoxy. Gonna let it cure at least 24 hrs . Then I will plug and or cap all the ins and outs,then leal check it on the workbench. If it holds I will have saved about 1000 or more. Then reinstall, fingers crossed.
Good luck. Huge project to replace one of those tanks for sure

Good to know you can get it out over there. Wasn’t sure there was room.

For those who have the larger holding tank (as does mine) it does come out as well, its no easy task but it can be done with diesels and a generator in the E.R.
Mine leaked from brand new it had a hole in the forward part of the tank, hard up against the hot water system.
