Fuel Tank Help

[Bushwacker]

Gas odor in the cabin of my Seafari is absolutely unacceptable when I sleep aboard, so I'm pretty fanatical about sealing the fuel tank! The old Permatex Non-hardening No. 2A Form-A-Gasket is a little messy but it works well; put some on both sides of gasket and on screw threads. (wear vinyl gloves if you don't want it on your fingers for a couple of weeks!) Don't use any type of RTV or anything with silicone in it, as it's not compatible with gasoline.
