Air tanks are bombs. Once it leaks it's trash.
Threading a bolt into an enlarged hole in a rusty air tank and then pressurizing to 120PSI is a recipe for a bolt shot through your face or worse yet your loved one's face when they walk by at some random point down the road.
Compressed air is not something to mess with.

Replace it with a stainless tank from JIM or a small tank from Viair.
