Hi All,
The '70 mustang tank works just fine with my 1938 1.5 ton, 22 gallons.. I cant seem to find a 0-30ohm sending unit for this. Are there any knowledgeable folks that can figure out where to look or how to make that work? Also, for some reason the tank LEAKS at the sending unit when the truck is on an incline like theres NO gasket at all! dang Any help as to why this can happen?

Thank you. [edit] may be some more customization work than I thought on my fuel tank and set up .. sigh - its the way these projects go. whew that rule someone said where you multiply YOUR estimate of how long things take by 2.5 seems reasonable..

There's a gasket between the sending unit and tank and the mounting collar screws it tighter to compress it. Should not leak if it is a good gasket and nice and tight.
