Thanks for your response. What about for the fuel sender units
(vans), use the rubber gasket by itself, proseal by itself or combo?
Thanks,
Jim

You can get a pro sealed access cover off with a putty knife.

When I built my RV-4 I used the gaskets Van supplied,,,,, Big
mistake. I cleaned it up and re-assembled it with Pro seal, haven't had
a problem since. My Rocket tanks are Pro Sealed.

Subject: Rocket-List: How to seal fuel tank access plates
What is the latest greatest way to get a long lasting seal on
the access plate to tank and the sender flange to plate junctures?
Last I heard Van said to just use the cork gasket material for
the plate and the rubber gasket material for the sender.
Over the years I've heard some guys use just proseal and others
use the gaskets with proseal on all surfaces.
Removing a tank to correct seepage is unthinkable, however,
having to remove the access plate to get inside the tank seems possible
should a leak elsewhere in the tank develop, hence the dilemma.
TIA,
