Had an emergency repair on Friday night, the fuel tank grommet was leaking (probably 23 years old)...gas on the floor.
Picked up a grommet at the local dealer, but I could not get it to go in all the way. I was not able to get enough "push". After several minutes of choice 4-letter words, I pushed with a socket that had a slightly smaller circumference than the grommet. It popped right in! I guess spreading the force over a larger area is what was needed
I appreciate the tips and help that is available on this site and will take any an opportunity to help someone else
