That Craigslist guy creeps me out. He says he will only accept cash mailed to him. I don't trust him.

jw, plastidip is a waste of time and effort. Been there, done that. Only thing it will create a mess with black pieces and such everywhere but where they were supposed to stay. The Fusion product, which is a two-part tube using a one-time use mixing chamber seems to work well and fuel doesn't seem to affect it. This product is found at your local automotive paint supply and used for plastic bumper and similar material repairs. It is a bit pricey, but DOES work well and seems to have worked on a couple pin-holes on my #1 diaphram

Ew, sorry bout that. I should've known, he live's in Aurora. (I keed. I keed.)
I tend to have decent luck with Craig's List, but there's always a few weirdos, and slippery characters. Good Luck anyway.

It's not your fault. I have seen his adds before and considered contacting him, but just don't want to.

Craigslist is definitely a hangout for the con artist of the world. My daughter is interested in buying a used car so we are looking there. It is amazing how often we see a way to good to be true deal. I learned early on these are scams. You contact them, and they reply that they will only accept money through Ebay or Paypal, the car is now ten states away or something. I just tell my daughter the old adage, "if it looks to good to be true, it is"!
Life is what happens while your planning everything else!
When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
