I am redoing my fuel system and I bought the new strainer for the bottom of the tank but forgot to order the seals. Are they anything special or can I get them at a hardware or autoparts store. Granted I havent taken the tank apart yet to see myself.

The aluminum ring at the mouth of the strainer is the crush washer. Some fuel safe sealant is a good idea as well.

I used some thick fuel safe gasket material and made my own. I imprinted the material with the fuel tubes and fittings, then cut it with an xacto knife. Took a couple tries to get it right, but it works.
