Paul,

    If you have not checked your tanks for leaks you should --- I had leaks around the screw heads of both senders. They were caused either because the paper washer failed or where I attached the grounding lug. As you noted, the sender can not be grounded if the grounding lug is isolated from the sender ( paper washer between it and the sender housing). The screws are already grounded because they are well bonded to the backing plate that makes contact with the inside of the tank and hopefully the tank is grounded.

    Not having much faith in the paper washers and ZAC grounding configuration, I used soft copper washers under the heads of the screws. These sealed perfectly and also have the benefit of grounding the sending unit to the tank. No additional grounding wire is needed if your tank is grounded.
