Oh ya, and the fact that 2 of the studs that hold the entire assembly into the tank broke off Theyre on opposite sides so hopefully it wont cause a leaking prob. Im gonna start puttin it back together now... Ill be back to post results in a couple hours!
To be honest and blunt: Chances are, you will leak fuel next time you fill up. I broke one stud off after removing my fuel sending unit, and it leaked like a sieve when I filled up for the first time. The whole system is heavily pressurized, so even one small undone area will lead to a major leak. Sorry, but I really think you're gonna need a new tank unless you have a miracle happen.
Noooo!!!!!! Did you have to get a new tank?? If so how much was it? The fuel tank is pressurized too?? Dammit Dammit Dammit Im gonna fill up tonight and see...
I wish you the best, and I hope there is no leak.
Me too....
