Brief Description:  Fuel Sender Probe

Today I started to put hands onto the fuel probe bending. First I used a wire to check the internal dimensions of the fuel tank, they were very close to the measurement of the manual, depends where the whole was drilled and the tank installed.
Left and right were only a few millimetres different. To bend the tube a brake line tube bender is required to do these tight bends of 5/8" radius to get close to the suggested shape.
Cutting the probe as per manual, but I discovered that the brass tube was touching the alu tube because the spacer was slipping backwards. This was shorting the two out.To prevent this from happening I squeezed the alu tub a bit to stop the spacer to move further back and cut the brass which made a flat end on the front preventing the spacer coming out.
Tested the probe in a bucket of fuel, worked without problems.
