Fuel Sender Sealant/Glue?
What sort of sealant/glue would be good use to attach and seal the electrical plug for the fuel sender to a 1mm steel plate?
|
Been digging and came across zap z-poxy (http://www.axminster.co.uk/zap-z-pox...sin-prod23719/) just wondering if this stuff is ok to use? Is there any difference between this stuff and more generic epoxy's that are alot cheaper? Is there something better to use?
|
Nobody able to advise on the use of epoxy adhesives with fuel?
|
Maybe not epoxy based glue as it would be a bugger to remove afterwards. Pro-Seal do a range of Silicone based "Instant Gasket":

Thanks spud, so would that stuff also work as an adhesive as I need it to hold it in place as well as seal it?
|
No i wouldn't use it as an adhesive, self tapping screws would be the choice if you can.
|
Hmm not sure that will work as its only the small cylinder electrical plug that I need to attach and seal somehow. I currenlty just have a small hole drilled which it sits in but it doesn't exactly stay in the hole that well. Maybe I do just attach it permanently then and if it ever goes or I upgrade my tank I just replace the sender and the small plate I've attached it to?
