I had something like that on a jeep I needed to fix. What I did was fill the gas tank up as full as it would go and then did the work. Yes it did in fact start to burn but a simple bucket of water and a few wet rags did the trick. A full gas tank CANNOT blow up because it has no air inside it to cause a problem. Yes it can start burning but it is simple to put back out with a wet rag. BTDT more then once and yes I have put out more then one fire in doing so. Best if you have a safety man there holding there hands in the bucket of water and rags and even putting a rag over the cap area with a bucket sitting below full of water so the rag can soak up the water and keep it even safer. I have done it both ways and have even punched a hole in a full gas tank when I was doing some welding but I knew I might hit the gas tank so again I made sure it was full and I do mean as full as you can get it
