Every boat is different I would bring some quality rtv that's chemical resistant at the very least. That way if you need to reseal it temporary you can. the boat i was working on didn't have a screen on the one side pick up and that was the side I was having issues. I had to fabricate new screens for both sides and clean out the tank.

Not sure on the fountains and i own a fountain, but never looked at mine I know my sending unit screws into the top of the tank because mine doesn't work anymore. I installed a fuel monitoring system with is way more accurate 99.5 percent to be exact and the system tells me way more info gph, total fuel used , has a reset for current fuel used. My tank is a 120 gallon tank and I know not to burn more than 80 gallons before refueling because fountains tend to not run well at a quarter tank or less. Mine anyway lol.

They are usually threaded in, so make sure you have a tube of Permatex teflon thread sealant or equivalent for when you reinstall.
