Re: [Amc-list] sending unit question

Also keep in mind that use will clear some problems.
I never worry too much about erratic operation when getting a car out of storage.
The sweep of the arm from fuel movement will clear minor contamination and corrosion.
My fuel gauge in my 69 would occasionaly drop to empty while driving when I first drove it.
IIRC, this usually happened when it was full, A condition the previous owner likely never subjected it to!

It now works fine.
