the sender should come with thread sealant on the threads, it will not have to be tightened very much for it not to leak. i used a pair of channel locks.

Craby and BC, thanks for the comments. I have gorilla hands and find it difficult to get anything all the way back there on top of the engine. I tried the tools at the Auto Parts but none are deep enough for this. I will give it a shot with some more patience.
regards,
jim
