Reply to "New gas tank sending unit."

The thing I found about the stock arm is that the tank is roughly 7 1/2 inches deep where the sender is and the sender arm is much longer so it sits on the bottom of the tank for part of its swing.  When I drove away from Greg at VM the last things he said was don't trust the fuel gauge under 1/4 tank and the turn indicators don't cancel I did a lot of testing of the Centroid sender. I drained the tank till the guage read empty and looked inside with one of those scopes from Amazon.  The tank hadbetween 1/4 and1/2 gallon left below the sender around the outlet. I put 2 gallons back in and the VDO guage read 1/4 tank, I added another 2 1/2 gallons, 1/2 full, added 2 1/2 more guage read 3/4 and 10 gallons full. Now I know if the guage reads empty I've got about 5 miles left at least.
