Installed new tank and sender not bad job except for old guy installing slows progress.Progress is slows now that weather is nice grass grows plants need trimmed lot of yard work. Also cruise season is here.
New tank and sender went together with no hang ups sending unit to tank made complete new parts installation. Next step add new gas which may need loan for that. The sender came complete with lock and new gasket seal. Did add ground to tank to chassis for added gauge operation. The lock ring required extra ground connection as on my Clipper (Studebaker style) uses screws to hold gauge in tank easy to add ground with one of attaching screws Was wondering about old tank as it is rusty inside and has leak . First thought is to scrap it as I assume new one will last longer than I will . The old tank was only coated on outside and rusted from inside. Pretty sure it was sealed on out side as entire tank was covered even the top and filler spout Read that coating of both inside and outside was only one method as outside only was cheaper. What is general feeling on future of old tank scrap is my first thought
