JP, I don't know how your tank is but mine has a ring spot welded around the sender with 3 tangs that hold on the retaining clip. I have a feeling one of the 3 spot welds on the ring has broken loose creating a small crack/leak (I looked inside with an inspection mirror and a flashlight). I don't think you can repair this from the outside due to the ring covering the damaged portion of the tank.

RR, my butt dyno says I'm faster than your heap! Grin
