Since I have my tank out and cleaned up, and since it's not working, now is the time to change out fuel sending unit. I've looked in my parts book but it does not cover the gas tank or the sending unit. I checked online for a universal sending unit but not seeing anything listed for my local parts store.
Anyone swap one out? What did you do for a replacement?
Also, I cleaned out my tank and overall it's pretty clean. I did detect some surface rust on the inside roof of the tank which I took a wire brush to and got as much as I could reach off. I'm thinking between the pickup tube screen (which does not rest on the bottom, and the inline fuel filter any residual particles that might fall off will likely not be problematic. Given that, I'm not seeing a need to have the tank relined. It doesn't look that cruddy and it's not showing any signs of being compromised. Thoughts?
