November 21, 20159 yr Author comment_481434 I don't know anything about the quality and fit of this custom fuel tank but I run across it when doing Tampa Craigslist searches. It looks very interesting and I thought you might also be interested.http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/pts/5288489852.htmlInteresting. But the sending unit is on the top and mine is on the side. Unless they have a different style of sending unit that could be a problem. A little high end for my needs too I think.

November 22, 20159 yr comment_481446 Be careful if you try to drive them out. They are easily mushroomed. That is why pulling is a good method for removing them.

November 23, 20159 yr comment_481505 My hat's off to you if you can save that sending unit. Â Personally I'd start trolling ebay for a rebuilt or rebuildable replacement.

November 24, 20159 yr comment_481563 Ill be impressed if that unit comes back to life. Its looks pretty awful in those photos. It will be interesting to see.The tank looks bad, but they generally clean up ok. Just takes a lot of work. Finding a replacement in better condition will be a challenge.
