That's a big fat suckfest. On the 123s, I know the fuel tank was
between
the rear seat and the trunk. Was it also visible/accessible from the

Lots of things will puncture a gas tank, could even have been something
flying across a lane sideways that you didn't even seen.
I'm glad the car didn't catch fire, as this is always a possibility --
a new tank is cheap in comparison.
The same thing happened to my uncle some years back -- he
