I have successfully removed the tank, broke the ends of the
clips on the high pressure fuel lines, and removed the old
fuel pump.
I installed the new pump and reconnected the power clips.

I noticed that I had a little gas seepage before dropping the
tank and assume the filler tube rubber seal may not be up
to snuff (89 GT).

Do you think a little RTV will be needed or a new Gromet?

Do you see any problem with replacing the fuel line clips?

Any other way to see where a seepage leak may be coming from?

Any tricks to use for the reinstall?(I have the car on a Bend Pac lift)


Thanks George

My 89 notch had a leak,where the two halves of the tank where put together,by the pinch weld in the back by the right strap.
