[QUOTE="GLN305, post: 4070359, member: 579623"] Disconnect the battery. As far as the gas tank is concerned, just make sure that where you are welding is not going to get the tank hot. I have welded on newer vehicle with the battery connected with no issues, but that was on the frame. Welding on the body may have a possibility of hurting electronics, I doubt it, but disconnecting the battery is a good safeguard. You can buy welding blankets is there is anything that you are afraid is too close to where you are welding and may get too hot or molten metal may drop on it. Here's a welding blanket: [URL="http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=41506"]http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=41506[/URL] [/QUOTE]
