yea, something that should be a $5 fix may cost me a new $90 tank with the grommet already included. If I could glue on a nipple over the hole and just attach the fuel line to the nipple that would be great, I have see gas tanks like that.

my hole is 14mm, not 13. that 1 mm is throwing everything off, I think.

right, so unless the OEM grommet (which it getting delivered today) is a couple mm larger then the generic ones I have, I don't see how it will give a proper seal.
