Re: Finding an Off the Shelf Gas Tank Fuel Sender for 47 Packard

Here's a couple of pictures on modifing the sender, I first opened it up and removed the wirings as one whole piece. ( It looks like you could almost rewind it for 100 ohms but I didn't want to go that far.) Next I took a small round file and filed a grove where the arm would lay. Then I put the winding back in and checked that the wiper on the arm touched the very end for zero ohms.
I will make more checks later.

P.S. I should have taken a before picture, the first picture was after the filing.
