Lawn Mower fuel tank cracked, what to repair it with

[Roger645]

The fuel tank on my mower (plastic) has cracked round the filler neck, what's the best glue to use on this?

JB Weld is good stuff, used it on tanks before.

Does JB weld work on Plastic?

acetylene blowtorch is my best idea....

The tank will almost certainly be made from polypropylene, which CANNOT be glued satisfactorily with anything. I'm afraid it's f****d!
