"p.s....if i have a gas tank that is all dented, i have in the past with sucsess, hooked up an air line to the tank and pop the dents out, works pretty slick, just don't use full air pressure (use a regulator)...."
Glen, you're scaring the heck out of me! If there's an accident and the tank fractures, you've got a rocket with ragged sharp edges flying around.
There are plenty of ways this can happen too. Just for one, if regulator the gets a piece of dirt in the orifice, the regulator will leak line pressure into the tank.
Just remember, that to move one of those bumps you've got to cause the metal to yield which means that the stress level is pretty high, somewhere close to fracture. If there's a crack from forming or some funny heat treatment due to welding or soldering, you could easily be there.
You know, I haven't had a nightmare about this since I retired (I had some design responsiblity for pressurized components), but I'm afraid I might tonight.
Please don't try this at home folks!
