 Your Toyota fuel tank, simply due to its position, is vulnerable to developing leaks over time, and it is not unusual to have to change the Toyota fuel tank once during the lifetime of the vehicle. Although its sturdy metal body was treated to prevent corrosion before installation, after a few years of being assaulted by road debris of various types and being bathed in the salty slush of winter roads, that protective covering can wear away, leaving the metal vulnerable to corrosion, particularly around any areas that have been scratched or dinged. The inner walls of your Toyota fuel tank also face the potential for corrosion due to the additives and contaminants that are found within the fuel you fill it with, as well as from condensation and water. As the rust flakes off of the inner walls of your Toyota fuel tank, it can form a thick sludge at the bottom of the tank, which can damage the fuel pump and other fuel system parts if it should get sucked up and into the system. If there is rust, you expect that at some point there will be a leak in your Toyota fuel tank, which can be quite dangerous and should not be ignored.
 If the leak in your Toyota fuel tank allows the highly flammable fuel to leak onto the hot, heat retaining exhaust parts, it could ignite and if the stream is positioned right and at the right stream strength, the flame could follow the stream back into the fuel tank and cause an explosion.
