Personally I would be hesitant to test for a shorted out sending unit by putting it into a tank of gas while there is power to it.
A spark at the moment the sending unit contacts the top of the tank might make for very bad day.
Might be a better idea to test for a short between the post on the sending unit and the top flange of it where the bolts go through on the bench without any power to it with an ohmmeter.
