Re: repair of fuel gauge float in '49 Custom 8

New floats are available on ebay and several other mfg vendor sites. I believe the diameter of the 49 is around 1 3/8" with the groove the arm fits into around 1 1/4". If so I think it is the same as some Ford floats. If the size is off a small amount the wire can usually be reconfigured to conform to the difference.

There are also replacement cork floats on ebay for anyone that might need them.
