Look on my web site for fuel gauge info.

If you need to access the sender, there is even a diagram showing where
to cut the sheet metal (look in Mech section); not recommended if
Bus is pristine. <g>

Hey all,
On my'65 Bus there is a ground wire running from one of the screws holding down
the sending unit to the chassis. Is this wire supposed to be there? Isn't the
sender already grounded by virtue of being screwed to the tank?

Normally, one of the sender screws has a plain brass washer to provide
grounding, but the additional wire won't hurt.
