    My rear end is seeping and gassy

    It looks like there's some minor gasoline seepage coming under the rear bench, under the caps. Both the fuel pump and sending unit sides show signs of seepage. I believe there are two o-rings, one for each side, but I can only find one of them. Part No. 16111744369

    I can't find the fuel sending unit O-ring if there is one. It's raining so I don't want to open them up right now to look at the o-rings.

    Anyone have experience replacing both of them?

    Should be the same o ring for each side.

    There's also the level sensor gasket that's often missing, 16121150391.

    The thread title makes it seem like you have a personal issue.

      I would also assume both o rings are the same as the one for the drivers side is not listed.
      When you do a search for the driver side sender unit (16141179720), it comes with an o ring. Maybe you could compare the size with the one you pull off of yours.

          That too.

          I found another issue that may be more relelvant?

          It looks like a hard line is crusty and it feels damp (fuel)

          How do I shrink this photo?

            Paint works for resizing photos.

              With imgur, put an h just before the .jpg and you get 1024x768 or some such smaller resolution.

              Investigate both ends of that hard line to determine if it's at fault or the hose connections.

                Awesome tip for imgur, thank you. I'll check that line out this Saturday, see what i see.
