QUOTE(lmcchesney @ Aug 8 2004, 08:44 AM) Thanks everyone, One thing I picked up was the comment about using teflon tape on the sender may prevent the sender from achiving a ground. On 914's, since you can't mount the sender directly (doesn't fit with the engine tin), you must mount it remotely using a flexible hose as was discussed here. So you cannot achieve a ground connection through the threads anyway (electricity doesn't really like to travel through 12" of rubber hose). You must make sure the body of the sender is grounded - usually through it's mounting bracket. Demick |

'course what you've done is mount a big heavy pendulum onto an aluminum boss in a high-vibration area. these have been known to fail when the stress work-hardens the aluminum as it eventually will. but it's nothing a new case won't fix ... there's a reason most people remote mount those... |
