Re: Leaking Fuel Senders.. Again



I got my replacement and it has not leaked yet, but it reads empty
irregardless of amount of gas in the tank. I would say the wash is in order
then take a close look at other connections if that does not work. I found
that I could feel the fuel on the sender wire when it was leaking. Good
luck.
