Working in garage dropped a 1/2 inch rod on the back of the tractor. The rod speared the fuel tank. :mad:Is this repairable in diesel tank and how. Thanks for the input

The 870 has a steel fuel tank. I would say definitely repairable. Lots of options. Welding, brazing or soldering would be best. Could even repair using a fiberglass fuel tank patch kit available at any auto parts store. They come with instructions and all materials needed to make repair.
