AHA! Found Sunken float

[Jim Ozolins <j_ozolins@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I pulled my Valiant's fuel gauge sender out last night and found that the 
little brass float was full of gas! It was like a gas tank within a gas 
tank. It has a couple of kinks on it that had turned to cracks. Maybe a 
previous "master mechanic" grasped it with vise grips when popping it into 
the wire retainer on the float arm?

Also, the filter looked perfect, but fell apart when I removed it from the 
fuel line.

So I am going to go into my saved messages and find that F*rd part number 
for the filter, and see if there was a recommendation for replacing the 
float. I believe someone mentioned a solid plastic float that is unable to 
sink. If anybody has the filter and float info handy, I'd appreciate a 
re-post. I hate to ask because I know it was recently discussed here.


thanks
