Before I install my fuel tank is there a way to bench test the fuel level sending unit?
Thanks Brian |

Take the sending unit and let it soak in a some lacquer thinner about half the length of the tube in a tall container. Make sure it seeps in the side hole. Let it fill up. Put your finger over the hole and shake the thinner in side the sender. Repeat several times. Drain thinner out. Turn up side down and listen for float movement. Repeat process until float moves freely.
