Thanks Ross - that is as I thought. In contacting both Wolf's and Roy Martin, I am advised that they can renew the gauge and sender to factory spec, including a new 5/8" follower nut, so I am okay. Thanks for the offer on the one you have; I'd have gladly bought it from you had I struck out with the repair options or decided to do it myself. For the reasonable fee that these guys charge, it doesn't seem prudent to mess with it. I will do the retap on the hole and hopefully get a nice set of threads out of the deal. I spent the day finalizing the engine detachment and am pretty much ready to lift it out. After it is 'on the hard', so to speak, I will tackle the drilling and tapping. Thanks again for weighing in on this... Appreciate ALL the responses.
