GSA petrol tank studs stripped - oh feck

[Crapaud]

Ouch... but was it worth it to see the young nurses?

And the best bit was... and I kid you not,
My wife eventually turned up to sit with me in hospital whilst they flushed out the petrol from my eye, she complained after we had been waiting a few hours into the Saturday night. I though my wife was concerned for my pain and discomfort but no, she wanted to get back home so that she wouldn't miss her favourite program on Saturday night.
What was that program that she was missing whilst sitting with me in A&E?







Casualty on BBC1!

Thanks

Thanks to all who gave advice. pretty much the whole stud thread length was stripped, so I've gone down the drill out, tap and bolt from the inside route. Will complete the reassembly tomorrow so fingers crossed!
I've changed the fuel filter whilst it's out and will leave it in the tank

Cheers for all the advice
