Re: Tech: Blazer Tank Conversion Fuel Filler Delete
Step 1: Weld or epoxy bolt to back of the fuel filler blank (see picture above)
Step 2: Paint old grinding disk to use as a backer for inside of delete and to not look too ghetto from inside.

Re: Tech: Blazer Tank Conversion Fuel Filler Delete
Step Five: On the inside of cab insert old grinding disk with flat side first on then bolt, then washer, then wing nut. Tighten
Step five: Here is what you end up with. (I left blank unpainted for demonstration purposes.)

Re: Tech: Blazer Tank Conversion Fuel Filler Delete
If you want to you can add a bead of silicone before you tighten the delete down all the way.

Re: Tech: Blazer Tank Conversion Fuel Filler Delete
that would work good with the body pannel adhesive that they use now instead of welding.
