Testing the gas guage sending unit ?
Tag
Well I figured out how to test it and it works but some cleaning revealed the brass float is badly cracked. Throw it away and buy a new unit or some sort of float substitute ?
Service motors has new ones. Cork will work well for many a year. I have used them in antique outboard motor carbs. I thin out some Permitex #3 sealer with a little acetone and paint a replica so they don't absorb fuel, let them dry and install em. But, it's less hassle to let Butch or them Damn Yankees send you one that ends all the grief and it's fool proof. Ceptin for me. Greif sometimes finds me hiding in a dark cellar......
instead of throwing it away if the electrical checks out, why not make sure the float is empty, then solder the crack closed? I would heat the float in a low heat oven to drive out excess air before I used a soldering iron (nota flame) to do the soldering. good luck.
