I have CIES fuel senders that I'm hoping to install in my quick-build wings, just one per tank. My issue is that the QB wings come with #8 nutplates installed for the factory sender. The CIES sender uses #10 hardware. A rubber gasket is included and, if I were to use #8 hardware with the gasket, I would expect leaks. However, if I were to use Proseal around the perimeter of the access hole and under the head of each of the (#8) screws, I would think the undersize screws would not be an issue.
Agree or disagree?
Also, for the factory sender, the float isn't supposed to contact either the top or the bottom skins. I presume that's not an issue with the CIES sender as long as it has no interference in its travel from skin to skin?
