I need to repair my sender unit and wanted to know if Tom was happy with the John Wolf Company.
Also, I am a little confused as to what happened to cause your sender to stick. The diagram posted on the site makes it very clear that the sender bar was hitting a baffle inside the tank, but wasn't that baffle always there? My sender is straight like yours, so I would assume that this is the correct configuration and that it worked at some time. The bend you made is a clean and simple fix; I am just curious as to what changed to make the original configuration no longer functional.

Hi Tom,
My original sender was not straight like the one I now have. It had a joint that had the sender pivot from the bottom (see diagram.)

John Wolf Company did a good job at fixing my sender, and when I move the arm through its full motion, the gauge reads through its full range. They obviously got the resistance in the sender right.
