Install Fuel senders in Left and Right tanks, This was a little confusing for a couple of reasons. !. I started with the Left Tank, and carefully followed the pictured in the plans ond on other websites, (Based on Yesterday's SNAFU). No matter what I did there was no way that I could get the float to move the full range without hitting either the top or bottom flanges. finally I took everything out and determined that the float itself had been riveted (assembled) so that when the mounting holes to therib line up, the 'swing-plane' for the float was on an angle, I finally upt a set of channel locks on the metal part of the float and was able to 'nurse' the assembly into a position where the swing/plane allowed for easy clearance of both extremes.2. The other thing that threw me for a while was the the RIGHT tank, I expected to be a mirror image of the left, but it turns out that when you mount the flange to the rib and line up the holes, the sender unit it upside down from the LEFT tank, This threw me for a while and I was about ready to call Van's for new parts when I figured out that it had to be that way in order for the electronics to work (ie. Full indication = full tank, etc.) So went ahean and installed. This whole thing perplexed me for way too long.
