...like many beloved racers my luck has hit the wall.

Fuel gauge wasn't working on this car I bought a few weeks ago so I pulled the sending unit.

I've got a step by step of my on that works pretty good, about four 5 gal. buckets and write down my next steps on a pad so as not to panick. And the 240 tanks are a hole lot easier (smaller) to slosh around. $30 for the Red-Kote liner, $20 for the muratic acid and acetone, gallon of each.

I replaced my sending unit about five years ago and I remember scrambling to find a o-ring seal to go on the flange where it mates with tank. It would be a good idea to have one on hand as it doesn't come with the sending unit. Here is an image from the parts fiche, its item four p/n 17342-18000. I think it was metric but I don't have a record of the actual size.
