DIY: Fuel Spill/Splash Guard (240z retrofit -> 240sx fuel sender area)

[onosqv]

I'm bored & haven't done any write ups in a while, so figured I'd do this quick one.

Kinda-sorta-useful for the few who care about trying not to spill fuel onto their paint @ the gas station:

Total project time: about 3-5 minutes

Equipment required:- Scissors- Rubber material or a 240z fuel splash guard (or whatever it is really called)



Step 1:- Trim the splash guard

Step 2:- Fit the piece - if you trimmed too much like I did (or just got a rectangular piece), you can wedge it between the fuel sender grommet & the chassis.







It actually works, too! Normally I don't spill any fuel. However, yesterday, I went to fuel up & 2-3 drops escaped the fuel sender & landed onto the splash guard instead of my nice paint, YAY!
