<VV> Gas Tank "Sender" Unit

[shortle]

Where is it leaking from? Are you certain it is from the sender unit area? Could it be from the hoses at the filler neck (my '62 was leaking from there)? Are you using the proper tool to install the sender unit retaining nut?

I replaced all the internal stuff there early-on in the project, but as I've begun filling the tank two gal at a time, it started leaking. Is there something I can try to stop the leak from the outside or do I have to go back inside? Thanks for any advice.
