Author	Topic:   fuel tank gasket
brandy	posted 08-08-2010 11:38 PM ET (US)         There is the rubber gasket on the 78 gallon fuel tank where the fuel lines exit the tank to engines. Rubber gasket is cracked. Needs to be replaced. Any better material? I replaced gasket 6 years ago. Perhaps there is a better instalation / replacement procedure? thank you F/V Answered Prayer then again 6 years lots of hours maybe not to bad drew
