Which ones are you talking about?

The ones at the end of the tank or the ones that buffer the strap that holds the tank down????

Marv, I would recommend NOT putting the carpet pads back in, they tend to absorb moisture/water, which will tend to rust out. I replaced the carpet pads with neoprene. I got a roll of it from Lowes/HD that they were selling for lining tool boxes for trucks....

Do those black plastic chunks that fell off the tank when I pulled it out rest on those? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

Excellent point Rob. Mine rusted out the gas tank years ago. One day I filled the tank all the way up and gas leaked all over the place. Pulled the tank and I had pin holes where the felt pads were.

The first thing I had to have fixed when I bought my car was a leaking gas tank. Had a hole right where the rust pad contacted the tank. These make great sponges. I too used closed cell neoprene gasket material as a replacement. It seems like a better material than a sponge.
