Wings normally. Some have fuselage tanks as well, especially long-range versions.

Regardless of the type of engine it uses, every powered airplane requires a fuel system, which includes fuel tanks, fuel lines, and either a carburetor or fuel injection system to deliver fuel to the engine.Airplanes with high wings, like the Cessna Skylane, often use a gravity feed system to get fuel from the tanks to the engine. Airplanes with low wings use electric or mechanical pumps to deliver fuel under pressure to the engine through a tank selector.
Fuel systems usually include two or more tanks. Some use rubber bladders, while others use "wet wings" where the wing structure itself forms the fuel container. Sealant keeps the fuel from leaking around rivets.
