leaking fuel sending unit

I dropped my tank and pulled the sending unit out. It was really loose, and there is no way it was tight enough to seal. I'm guessing this aftermarket seal is crap. It's actually really thin and cheap. I don't think I have the patience to wait around for another seal. I'm going to see if I can find some type of caulking that might do the trick and report back.

If the rubber seal is not torn or dry rotted then reuse it. DO NOT USE CAULK OF ANY KIND! Don't ask how I know!

All needs to be done is make sure the lock ring is tight against the seal and tank. When I installed mine I just didn't think it was tight enough but I installed it anyway and it does not leak. It doesn't seem to take that much to seal it.. good luck!
