If you immerse it in a pan of hot water, the leak should show as a
stream of bubbles. Continuing to gently heat it should eventually
drive off the liquid fuel. Let it cool (and suck air) before
trying to seal the leak.<br>

I don't have my notes handy, but ISTR someone saying there is a
Ford part that will work. Older car, might possibly have been a
Mustang II (but probably not).<br>

Took a look because the car will run out of gas while the gauge still
