Re: 68 fuel gauge

It was not my intention to offend anybody.....I was unsatisfied with the way the hole turned out after the PO of my burb cut it with a circular saw.... I realize that the plate you make to cover the hole is going to cover any ugliness, but I wanted a nicely finished hole of at least OEM quality after coating..... I bought a router specifically to enlarge and square-up the hole and finish to the corners..... It cost me less than $100.....
I believe that the wood around the corners is much stronger than if I left the cuts that overrun the corners, but it certainly looks a lot nicer..... These are just small details really!
The point of my post was to explain a quick test of the sending unit to save the trouble of looking further if the sender is not working.... My reply also assumes that the ground wire to the sender is intact and grounded properly.
