Sealing a leaky gas tank

My 202 workbull gas tank leaks around the plate where the fuel level float attaches. I took out the float, it was bad and I don't need it. It leaks around the threads of the screws holding it in. Tried a new gasket, still leaks. Tempted to JB weld the whole thing down. No turning back after that. Other options?
 
I believe there is a pipe dope specially rated for oil, gasoline, propane, and I cannot tell exactly your situation, but that might work.
 
Good luck, I tried a number of products advertised
to seal gas tanks, (plastic fuel tanks) but I never
found anything that held for any length of time.

Gas leak is very difficult to seal and can be
dangerous if it starts leaking again while the
tractor is running.
