I wanted to keep the body of my fuel sender original and replace the float and arm after testing it's electrical function was allright. It checked out running from 2-3ohm at empty up to 83-84ohm full, but finding a replacement arm and float was difficult. Lots of plastic floats but no arms so looking around I found a brass float for a Mustang sender and with a short length of spring steel fashioned a mount which was then silver soldered to the existing arm. Total cost $26.45 including postage and besides who looks in the fuel tank anyway?
