69 Dart 4 door cruiser
I pulled the sending unit and bent the tube above the section where the float arm connects. Before:
After.
I haven’t looked inside a tank in awhile. It is surprising how the float rarely ever rests on the floor where you are really empty. We all have driven cars that keep running even when the gas gauge needle hits the E line. From where this float rests, it looks like there could still be two gallons left.
The end of the filter sock is maybe 1/4” off of the floor. I’m going to leave it there.
I may replace this tank anyway. I don’t understand how it got this weird dent in the top.
I’m going to look around to see if I have a better tank around. I should have a filler neck grommet in the parts shed.
