    New fuel tank and sending unit

    That’s good to know! I’ve just been removing and replacing stuff after 50 years of sitting around (my first car). I’ve just gotten it running and enough fuel in it to keep it running. I haven’t driven it yet, or added enough fuel to see if it even registers on the gauge. I’ll definitely take...

    New fuel tank and sending unit

    Okay, great idea . Until you mentioned that, I wasn’t thinking that it was threaded, but you’re right, that’s how it was attached to the unit itself, duh! Great idea! Thank you!!!!

    Not sure how to wire in…

    Thank you very much! That actually makes sense to me now. The “Black wire w/white stripe” just seems small to belong to the battery post on the alternator. One of my searches suggested a 6awg from that post directly to the positive post on the battery? Again, the their that stole my...

    Not sure how to wire in…

    My 67 Dart GT was parked for years and at some point, someone helped themselves to my alternator. They cut all the wires, so I’m kinda clueless as to how to wire it up properly. I’m an R&R guy and really don’t know much about electrical stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated… thanks in...
