The chances of ignition occuring inside a closed fuel tank are pretty much nil. Think of how your engine works: the fuel will only ignite if the mixtures are pretty close to 14:1 air/fuel, and even then it gets compressed to buggery before the spark does anything. Those conditions aren't likely to occur inside your fuel tank.
