Dang fuel sender leak, not sure how to fix, at a loss
so, i have a 1987 S4 Tii, and I have a big fuel leak.
It only happens when the tank is over 3/4 full, it leaks out of where the sender unit gets bolted down.
I have put in a new gasket, and used fuel rated sealer on both sides
I took the sender out and look to see if the mounting part was warped, it was, i straightened it out.
Made sure the surface was clean where the gasket goes.
I would tighten it down more, but afraid of stripping the bolts.
What do I do, im at a loss...
