Hi, I’m pretty new to this board but I just replaced the grommet on my C/10 on Saturday. I used a thin premixed spray soap, I believe it was “Simple Green” but 409 or similar would work also. Sprayed the grommet with the soap and started working the grommet into the cab and also onto thriller neck. I also used a very dull old screwdriver to work the grommet into the cab, a little at a time and also to work/push the grommet further onto the filler neck. When the soap appeared to dry up and the grommet started to stick, I’d spray more simple green into the lips of the grommet. Take your time and have patience, it will go!
