Have any of you had a problem with the new rings that come with the gas tanks and the rubber gasket? The problem I'm having is the older seal ring tabs are wore out and won't seal properly and was curious if any of you have tried to install a new repop ones that they sell the tabs are too aggressive and won't lock in to the tabs on the tank. I have quite a few to pick from the one that has worked so far and made a seal is a thicker unit but won't lock into the tabs on the tank. Does anyone have any suggestions or has anyone ran into this problem and come up with a solution other than file down on the tabs till it will click into the tabs or try to bend out the tabs on the tank until it clicks in?? Like I said before the old one once it clicks in the tank leaks because it is worn out and the newer ones the tabs are to aggressive and won't click in. any thoughts would be deeply appreciated. I already have taken a gasoline bath one of the times trying to pull on the tank wrench to get it to seat the wrench popped off and the seal ring came with it and the sending unit fell out at the same time.
