how old is the tank? I would not use any pressure. try to lift the tank and see if the wood supports are soaked with fuel. (bet they are) you have pin holes in the tank. Most if not all boat tanks do not have any fittings at the bottom. no one ever wants to replace a tank, I didn't either, but when mine went we changed it out in in few hours. I can only hope yours is removable. good luck!
