Ken/everyon, will try and get the seal and replace while out, does not sound like a problem to do while out of car and everything is clean. I took the GAS TANK to Don P. and we/he made two metal covers for the inspection holes I cut in tank. Drilled the cover with larger holes than tank and drilled the holes for SS screws correct size for screws. Don cut two cork gaskets, we coated with the red tank sealer and tighten up. Should be there for the next generation! Loading up the rear end this morning to take to Don P's garage to see if he/we can remove that hub, if we must, blasting is now not ruled out!
