Still leaking. Going to have to take it back out. Wish I wouldn't have filled the tank. Next time I won't till I'm absolutely sure I can get this to work. Took apart the old one - all that's in there is a rubber o-ring. What is the 'worn packing' that I was told about as being the cause of the problem?
Been researching this and it seems that teflon tape is not suggested. Gas will eat through it eventually. Also, many people say they have never used anything when installing these and never had any problems. Loctite perhaps?
