We hear you. But being a selfish SOB, i'd like to be able to drive my Packard in broad daylight on more than just one (1) day a year, Stupor Bowl Sunday, other than 5-8am weekends.

Revising antiquated tax codes to save us and the planet is hardly govt. interference.

Meanwhile, Ace Hardware has various corks for those wanting to replace their sending units' original, as i just did. I dipped the NOS gas tank sending unit corks (Packard like many makes used a pair end to end) in Varathane in '87, but they finally became "gas logged" early this year. There are modern materials like poly-nitraphyll closed cellular foam that'll do the trick forever, if you can find in a close enough size, am told balsa wood also works, but c'est la vie. I dipped these twice in POR-15 tank sealer. Make sure to let them dry at least 96 hours before reinstalling.
