1.)  Brazing the Fuel Filler Pipe sounds  like a big (like you said Jim,
expen$ive) job for a small ROI. But effective.  Would a thin layer of
(material?) chemical plating on the steel work?

2.)  Carrying a pair of slip-joint pliers? Really? Not my style.  That's
like "Putting a saddle on a sow." ;-)

If I can't
A.)  smooth out the rolled edge of the Fuel Filler Pipe, or
B.)  replacing the doughnut-shaped cork (?) insert, it's .....
C.)  down to the workshop to fashion some sort of a smallish, torque
"multiplier".  Maybe made of wood.

I enjoy "inventing", anyway.
