Most plastic repairs require something that bonds the pieces together.
The material fuel tanks are mode from is solvent resistant so it is really tough to get a good bond.

JB weld & epoxies sort of stick to the material but can be broken away when it flexes.

You would be better off looking into some form of plastic welding, that uses heat to melt the parts together.
When it comes to a fuel tank & the danger of a leak, it is really better to consider getting a new one.
