    Self tapping screw and a rubber washer should do it.

    Be careful! This is an American forum. They might take you seriously, blow up their car and sue you for £20,000,000 for hurt feelings ;)


    I can happily say that as being sued doesn't worry me - I have no money! My ex wife look it all and won't give it up easily :eek:

    Alright. Alright.

    I'm going to close this thread because it would appear the answer has been provided and it's just getting silly at this point.

    Also, please don't use self-tapping screws with a gas tank.
