Leak was around the corner by the tap / bottom bracket.  Would prefer not to use a tank sealer and was happy to resolder but not knowing where the hole is makes fixing difficult.  Left it full of petrol over night so see what happened overnight.

Hi Douglas

It isn't the tap is it?  I've had a mysterious weeping of fuel in this area and found that petrol tends to defy gravity.  My leak was coming from the tap to tank thread and the tap itself but appeared to "stain" the whole corner of the tank.
