I am having a problem with the fuel pump plug, behind the drivers rear tire, getting damp and loosing connection. I was thinking of using a Micro Pelican case, 1030?, attaching it to the body, and incaseing the plug for a water tight seal. Is there any reason this will not work?

Can't think of any reason that it wouldn't work. One or two other guys on the list, Mike Slade in particular, enclosed their entire fuse boxes in small Pelican cases.

Thanks,

There is a really cheap alternative.

I used to use old butter/ magarine tubs for similar functions on my old S3 lightweight.

May work?

theres also a company called GSI. they make lexan cases that have a water tight seal/o-ring which are usually about $7-10 cheaper than the pelican cases of the same size. Lexan is the same material that Nalgene water bottles are made of if your familiar with hiking/camping type stuff.
