Re: Fuel tank sending unit

[William Harrison <bbjt3@xxxxxxxxx>]

The metal piece that locks the unit to the tank seems to have a good bite but I will run a ground from that piece to the frame and see if that makes a difference.
I also coated the tank when I replaced the sending unit and was almost hoping that the coating had come off and was keeping the float from working properly but no luck, the coating is working perfectly.
I am also going to trace the wire and make sure it has a good connection at the kick panel where it splices about 6 wires together.

P.S. Now the tranny fill tube has started leaking.
It's like Rose Rossana  Danna says: If it's not one thing it's another.
