Default Re: Quick, Easy, Cheap Fix for Fuel Filler Neck

Well, I ended up with a pvc liner in the neck and a layer of marine tex on the outside. I'm in fl so the weather is not a problem. I let it cure and the took some emory cloth buffed it down and replaced the filler hose.(It's amazing how limber a fresh piece of hose is. I was dreading threading the new one ,but it went real fast and easy) I will try to run the boat tomorrow and then top off the tank and see if it leaks. I can watch it through the inspection plate in the deck. In the course of all this, I found my teleflex cable housing is breaking down, so while i'm in a work mode, I think I'll install the NFB system. Have ya"ll heard any pros or cons over the conventional system? Thanks for all the feedback on the tank issue.
