RE: [Chrysler300] gas tank repair

["Rich Barber" <c300@xxxxxxx>]

Just for reference, the 1955 gas tank has the sender mounted to the top of
the tank, accessed through a plug in the trunk floor--and is only the
sending unit.  The outlet is a separate connection with an inaccessible
filter on the inside.  Slopping sealer to the inside of it very well could
plug the filter.  I suppose one could fun compressed into the outlet tube to
try and blow the gunk off of the filter???

C-300'ly,
Rich Barber
1955 C-300 (with a restored tank that had the outlet removed, filter
replaced and the outlet soldered/welded back in)

On most tanks, the Gas Gauge sender unit is also the pick-up. Once 
removed, all that is left is the tank itself with only the big hole the 
sender was in and the filler tube. There maybe  a vent tube somewhere 
also but the sealer won't seal  it off.

The problem is how to keep the sealer from cloging the gas outlet tube. 
with the tank off does the outlet tube come out with the float? Victor
