Pour them out thru the sender unit hole????

Did you ever play that game where you had to tilt a box to make a ball bearing go through a hole? It ain't easy. Try that with 150 nuts and bolts!

Many tanks have the filler tube that ends where it joins the tank. You can pour stuff out because it acts like a funnel. Not so with the Packard tank, at least my '48. I don't know for sure about other years, but I figure they're pretty much the same.

I used a telescoping magnet through the sender hole, with still a lot of shaking around to get 'em all.
