fuel sender question
In theory it is impossible to blow up a fuel tank in this way. ANY amount of gasoline in the tank will evaporate to it's natural state of vapor pressure, and in a very short time, will create such a saturated over-rich mixture that it can not possibly burn.
There IS an "envelope" of combustible mixture. In the same way that a fuel cannot burn "too lean" it cannot burn "too rich," either.
My first real heavy electric fuel pump back in the '70's was a Carter motor drive. The motor in this pump operates submerged in fuel. Of course nowadays this is commonplace
