Presently my tank is empty with the guage showing a quarter of a tank remaining. I removed the sending from the tank, with wiring in tact. I then raised and lowered the sending unit float and observed the gauge while doing so. It reacted to the movement, when float all the way up, the gauge showed "full". When lowered the gauge read "empty". This is not an adjustable sending unit. Can I simply "bend" the float lever down to a level that would more closely correspond to the gauge reading? If so, what is the best way to determine just how much to "bend" it. Naturally this is a very thin strip of metal and if I do the "trail and error" method I'm afraid this will eventually snap the float control arm. Any suggestions?<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Danny K.<br /><br />Thanks guys for the overheat sending unit warning info. Worked GREAT!!
