most importantly WATCH FOR YOUR GAS TANK. i'm sure mine got hit by ground screws (very small ones at that) multiple times.that was when the shop did it though.

oh, and if you do hit the gas tank.

just plug it up with a screw and pretend it never happened.

Although I don't agree with that as safety should be your first thought and not hit the tank at all... but if you do happen to pop a hole in the tank the proper way to seal it cheap would be to use a screw, but make sure that you put some silicone around the screw to seal it tight...

I had to do this to a customer's car once after He tryed drilling a hole in the trunk himself :p

silicone w3ont hold up to a gas leak, they actually make a product available at any parts store that is spesifically for gas tanks, ive used it on old bike tanks and it works great, it dries rock hard
