You could set up a spark plug inside a fuel tank and nothing would happen. Combustion requires fuel and air, and in the case of petrol the fuel:air ratio must in in a very specific window or nothing will happen. There is little or no air inside a fuel tank (just liquid fuel and gaseous fuel vapour) so no chance of combustion. You couldn't even light a match inside there.
