Re: Gas tank overfill

There is only one hole in the top of the tank. The sending unit and the output use that hole. There is a groove that is part of the tank that goes from this hole to the passenger side of the tank. Any overflow or leakage uses this channel and drains to ground from there. So because the kickoff allows gas to fill up the tube too far the overall level is above the top of the tank and is finding a way out at this hole. It appears to be coming out around the sending wire connection. Ordering a new sending unit today and maybe a tank once I get it dropped and inspected.
