Its petrol fumes that you need to watch out for, so makes sure th3 filler cap and vent pipes etc make a good seal.
I talk from experience after blowing up a empty petrol tank....welding spark went down a 1" hole for the fuel pickup and ignited the gas....made a interesting noise (boom-whooosh! ), and the tank resembled a baloon afterwards

tanks are awesome when they do go pop! I used to weld a lot of big army fuel cans and turn them into fuel tanks for buggies and off roaders and they can add 50% of the size again when they ignite!
