Used that stuff, after much research, a little bit a go on a flip car. A Corolla with the pump/sending unit/filter combo mounted in tank. The replacement unit was a tad longer/deeper than original (bottomed out in the tank) , which did not allow full contact with the mounting surfaces of the tank, unit, or gasket between them. Whole car smelled like a gas can. I really slathered it on. Dried nice and hard and all of the vapor smells disappeared in a day. Would definitely recommend the Permatex stuff!!!.
