The fuel tank was in the Wings. The American Fighter Pilots would aim at the wings to light the thing on fire. With no Self-sealing Fuel tanks, the move cost so many pilots their lifes. They were not built in the planes so they could be kept light.

Don't go 100% on me but my memory tells me that the fuel tanks on a Mitsubishi Zero were either in the wings, or they were in the fueslage just ahead of the tail.

I'm going to take a wild stab and say it was held in the gas tanks.
