Bob - I hope the new sender takes care of it. I guess since my original sender was actually leaking Autometer had no problem, they just said send back everything and they sent me a complete new gauge, sender and everything no questions asked. It sounds like I may have been lucky and moved the sender to the bottom of the fuel filter before any damage occurred to the new sender. I hope you get squared away, it feels much better having three properly functioning gauges.

PS - Rumor has it that Arizona is gonna be part of an upcoming TDR magazine, a million mile CTD out of Wilcox is to be featured.
