My sender was leaking through the screw holes up to the screw head. I used a
screw with an "O" ring to seal the leak. I obtained the screws from Olander
in Sunnyvale.

Listers,

We have a small problem with our BN2: we can't get the sender unit to
completely seal against the tank.  We've tried all types of materials; inc.
the Moss rubber-like gasket, paper gasket material, cork, etc.  
This is a new tank and the flange around the opening isn't as robust as on
an original tank, and the flange on the sender has been warped somewhat,
probably by over-tightening.  The best result has been from a cork gasket my
dad fabricated, but it still seeps a little with a full tank.

Any suggestions?

TIA,
Bob
