Title: Fuel tank seals.

Can anyone help me.

I have fitted a new fuel tank but need the seal which sits between the fuel tank and the filler neck. I have tried Mazda (without success - no surprise) and a couple of other specialists but without any joy. This means I can only put a couple of gallons in the tank before it starts to seep out.

Any ideas?
