Fuel Tank Gasket

Once again, I had to replace my float in my fuel tank. The brass ones just don't hold up and its always in the same forward tank? Anyway, after assembling and reinstalling the tank, I now have a leak coming from the top of the tank Evidently the rubber gasket rolled over or I tightened it down too much. So again, I'm faced with this task Any thoughts appreciated.

For what it's worth, new floats can be purchased on Amazon both in brass and plastic. I'm going to try the plastic this time even though they are made in Taiwan but they do have good reviews.Thank you for any responses.

I'd be curious to hear your experience with the plastic float. I installed a replacement brass float in one of our PSDs, and it barely lasted a year. Wondering if the plastic float is a better choice.
