Has anyone replaced the OEM rollover check valves and rubber gromets on their poly tank? My original has some type of sealer around the rubber gromets, any good ideas of what to use when installing the new ones for a fuel proof adhesive/sealer?

You shouldn't need a sealer if using new gromets and your surfaces on the tank and valves are clean and not damaged.

My tank had RTV used to seal the gromets. RTV turns to goo when exposed to gas. I cleaned everything up and installed new grommets (at $18 a piece from Chrysler) and eliminated the gas leak.

I just finally replaced the grommet and valve on drivers side with the factory parts, they work much better than help pcv grommets..... finally my gas stays IN the tank!!!
