Is Pro Seal used between the tank sender gasket and outside flange of
the tank... or only on the inside side of the tank flange and sender
pass through?

I coated the mating surfaces of the gasket/aluminum. I saw that as where
gaps would happen. Don't tighten your screws too tight after you smear the
sealant and install it, you might snap a screw off in the nutplate....

If you proseal the sender in ....HOW will you remove it to replace it or repair it someday? Might consider making a gasket out of cork material and put Fuel Lube on it. That would be a better fix.

That's right! Throw the gasket in the garbage and just use the sealant. Use proseal everywhere! On the screw threads, over the screw heads and any other place you might suspect a leak. No kidding.

The sender is easy to get loose...heavy material and not so much surface area for the sealant to hold onto. Do not however do the same to the cork gasket that goes between the inspection plate and the tank rib. That can be a bear to get loose when prosealed on.

When I sent my recommendation I thought we all had the same gasket sent, apparently we didn’t. My gasket was a large rubber donut that I prosealed liberally against the tank side. I probably would have thrown a cork gasket away as well.
