I need a 2010 fx450 gas tank. Mine is cracking and leaking where the metal insert is😕
 
Try to repair it!
yeah the previous owners had tried to fix it with epoxy but it failed and I have tried to fix it. It’s kind of hard to explain what is going on but these bolts thread into a metal sleeve that is molded in the tank. That metal sleeve is now loose and can be pulled out because the tank has cracked so much around it. If anybody has experienced this, please let me know if there’s any solution. Thanks

I had the same situation with my tank. one of the bolts just spun the metal sleeve. I ended up using a ratchet on each end.
 
Did you just get a new tank? Or did you just leave it?
Just left it. I would like to find a new tank too however, several of the shroud nuts in the tank were loose two and one is missing. The previous owner must not have owned a torque wrench!
