Nice job, Rich.

Looks great. I think I saw this video a while back though. Maybe last summer when I was searching for T18 videos.

It was probably a good thing I pulled the tank, the Cork gasket under the sender unit on top of the tank had given up, or it was starting to. I went ahead and made a neoprene gasket for the new one, I will HI-Tack it on there and and wont have to worry about it. Im not going to do this again that's for sure, I got ahold of the same setup Bob has and he reported his being trouble free, I should be worm food before it quits again. I will continue to use my fuel stick, it has proven to be vey accurate. As I fill the tank( with waterline I believe it #42) level I will make note of what the guage reads... Dan

I like the World right side up , straight and level , Max power to get to point B so I can laugh and scratch with my Pals ! ;) I had my thrills landing a jet on the Worlds shortest aircraft carrier and then getting thrown back into the air to do it all over again . CVT-16 . :o NO BIGGER BOOM THAN THAT !
