Ifitaintbroke Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 Measure the outside. "It's only sheet metal" Can you not measure the pinch weld and subtract? Oh. Should've been able to figure that out. I'm having some density issues today. Must be the eclipse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ifitaintbroke Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 It got a little dusky here in CT around 3. Don't worry, you're doing fine. Thanks. I'll try to get around to it tomorrow. I have a fence to finish putting up, and another to start on, plus a trencher that needs a handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdWrknTrk Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 One thought on these senders, the longest you can get them is 11". The rear tank is deeper than that at all points as far as I can tell. If the bottom of the sender was say, 1" above the floater of the tank, all that would mean is that I would have a small reserve of fuel after the gauge reads empty- and I'm fine with that. You can still get the pickup to sit in the well, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viven44 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Yes. Is there no way to re-use the existing sending unit hole ? Wondering if all you need is to cut a piece of sheet metal in the shape of a circle use the locking-retainer thingy to hold it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viven44 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Just use the bung from the old one. 💡 Well never mind.. I forgot for a moment the Reed fuel sender is a sender only... still needs the old "sucker" installed. Needs 2 holes in the tank. Better be a damn good sender !!
