Need Help on Auxillary Gas Tank

[jmcalj]

I need help identifying seals for my 1971 Ford Bronco Auxiliary gas tank. The image with the blue arrows has a rubber seal. I don't seem to be able to locate any seals that I can purchase. All the new tanks have the gas filler permanently built into the new tanks. I appreciate any help on this.

Bronco Graveyard has thick rubber washers for pretty cheap.

Thanks for the reply. Isn’t that rubber washer for the sending unit? The one on this tank bolts for the vent and where the fuel filler bolts to the tank. Both are smaller than what’s on Bronco Graveyard. I’ve been researching everywhere and haven’t found anything that matches.

Try McMaster-carr. They carry various gaskets, gasket material and o-rings.

Yes, sir, it is for the sending unit.

My bad! I was looking at my auxiliary tank out of my ‘77 and made <gasp> an assumption! Sorry for that.
