This weekend I replaced the gaskets on my -6 inboard fuel tank access and the fuel senders. It was a real PITA getting those screws out and back in again, particularly on the left side as there is an additional line (primer maybe) all but blocking access to the screw.
The space is too short for a stubby screw driver and its difficult even with a screw bit in a socket wrench.
It would be much easier getting them in and out, not to mention avoiding tearing up the heads, if they were bolts instead of screws. Is there a reason I shouldn't use bolts next time?
