>>>My rollover valve leaked like a sieve; it never sealed properly even 
with a new rubber gasket.   I drilled the rivets out and after thoroughly 
cleaning it, I used Hylomar on both sides of the gasket.   It worked like a 
champ!

Highly recommended...I believe I used it on the fuel sender and filler neck 
gaskets too, but can't exactly remember now.
