I ordered one of the new Frank Batelsen units today. I will report my findings when I have it switched.

Have you made the switch yet, and who is Frank Batelsen.  I just checked my fuel gauge problem today, I need a new sending unit.

I actually have made the switch, but I havent filled it with gas yet.

It does read a little higher after the switch than it did before. But the true test will be when its full of gas.

.......Stay tuned.


But gas is cheaper now Brian... :lol:  I will be trying one in a few weeks myself.

Yeah, I just don't want to fill it yet for a few , one is I don't want to check it for leaks in the storage building, and I don't know if it will ever be spring here in Iowa. If I fill it now it will probably be varnish by the time I get to drive it. That's how it seems anyway. :brickwall:
