finally got all parts for new fuel sender to go in ,but i dont wanna cut the tank as it means draining cleaning etc.
I need some rubber big enough to go round the sender which is less than 100mm in diameter but i need it at least 5mm thick
does anyone have something suitable lying about or advise where to buy from

thanks guys

it will need to be viton if it is in contact with fuel can you use an O ring? BS Standard size section would be 5.33 If you know what diameter you need send me a pm and I may be able to help.

I can get some insertion rubber or NEBAR (cork type) jointing material, which is gasket material to automotive sorts!
