Subject:gas leak around sending unit..
From:Shannon Mitchell
Date:Sun, 27 Apr 2003 10:02:54 -0400

1. got a new gas tank 
2. replaced all the lines, and fuel filter 
3. put in a few gallons of gas to get me to the gas station.. 4. filled it up and gas poured out the top of the tank.. 
5. wanted to cry
6. drained tank and tried a different gasket around the sending unit

went through steps 1 - 5 again with the same result.. I can't seem to get a good seal around the sending unit.. I have tried 2 different gaskets with the same result.. is the correct gasket flat? or is it an o ring?  can anyone help? does any one know where I can get a gasket that will fit right?

as always thanks in advance..
