...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.

"Here's your sign" moment,

Followed by these findings,

Lemons to lemonade I shaved off 3/4s lb.,

Oh well, I bought it for me to have something to do. It has scored an A+ with this.

Looks like someone will be getting a tank boiled out.

oh my

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.

Wow. That was a lot of rust. Nice job on cleaning it out!

Now you have me scared. I'll have to peek into my tank!

I know EXACTLY what you mean, Julio. I'm a little scared myself.

Question for you guys. Hopefully the baffle in the tank is only welded on the very bottom section? It steps down a couple of times before the actual lowest section so fuel can get around the sides, I'm hoping!

Thanks,

Cliff

How old can this thing be? it looks like it was made and packaged yesterday. Came from Irving, TX Nissan warehouse. $40 at my Nissan dealer, got it in 2 days.

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.

I have similar Sketchers...
