Re: OMC cork fuel tank float replacement

I, too, am wondering if there’s a better, more-modern solution. The available replacement from marineengine.com is also a varnished cork, and I would have thought by now a more modern alternative would be available.

I tried using a cork from a wine bottle, but it sank like a stone in the gas. I guess it’s not big enough to offer enough displacement to float the mechanism.
