Thanks
How on earth did you get at the blasted thing? Through the little hole in
the headrest?

if its the airworld one; mine did leak slightly when the tank was up to the
filler. I got in a right pickle when sorting it; forgetting (alter applying
gue) that the five holes have to align, in sender, gasket, tank and nut
ring because although they appear equi-distant they are actually on three
different pitches. I also dropped the ring nut into the tank and a screw
(plonker).
If I had to do it again, I would buy 5 longer screws and replace the them
one at a time allowing the sender and gasket to be lifted and a small amount
of sealer to be applied from around the top. When replacing the with the
right length screws I would add a small blob to each to seal the clearance
hole and thread. Sealer is not required in the tank.
Also you should be aware that because of the tank shape the gauge will read
non linearly and half full will be twenty something liters.
