Socket Dropped Next To Fuel Tank?
Any ideas on how to retreive a socket from next to or under the fuel tank on a 260? I was changing a sender and the dam thing fell and rolled past the towel i put on side of tank to prevent this. Is there any way to get good access? I thought maybe thru the drain hole in engine compartment? Any ideas will be of great help!!!

Well the tanks are aluminum....so you could find a small magnet and tie a string to it and hope for the best.
Or just use the boat and hope the socket works its way into the bilge area..
