MessageWhat I would suggest is that you pop a hole in the top of your
existing sending unit, & run a new line (@ the size of your choosing) down
to the same point as the original one that way you know for certain that you
are not going to have PU or sloshing problems.  if you want you can put a
small piece on the bottom of the old PU tube & run it another direction that
way the return is not dumping right @ the PU point.

When I did mine, I put the new PU line as close to back to stock as I did
(w/o having the original one in place still) & did not get it just right.
if I hammer it w/less than 1/4 tank I can get the PU tube out of the gas, &
I never had that problem with the original PU tube.

  I have a gas tank out of a 72 Nova. The sending unit is junk and has no
return line. I have done a little surfing but have not yet found a really
suitable replacement. So does anyone have a suggestion for a source for
sending units, esp. with larger return and pickup lines.
