Reply to "Tach and fuel guage stopped working......?"

FWIW, trying to pull the sender out of a gas tank by fitting it between the tank & roof usually causes bending of the float arm. I have TWO senders here that broke at the sharp bend entering the rheostat, and dunno if its weldable. The float arm wire is a hardened type steel and does not tolerate much (sometimes none at all) bending.
Also, having the window out allows easier R & R of the large fuel hose that connects the outside gas filler to the tank. If you have a '73-up and yours hasn't cracked yet, know that its only a matter of time. Radiator hose will NOT work as a substitute- it needs fuel-proof hose.
