Mastershake340- I thought I remembered talk on hear about Ford having the strainer and float but a search turned up empty.
I went to the Ford dealer on Monday, parts guy didn't seem too interested in helping me unless I come up with part #'s. [Not slamming him, I understand that].
Snoopy- I have a 3/8" sender
Challenger1- I called the Dodge store and they did not have/could not get it.
My sock was wasted 10 years ago when I had it apart last time and I did not deal with it then.
I've ran out of gas a couple of times the last few years and just did again 2 weeks ago on the way home from Wed nite grudge racing.
I figure all my freinds are gonna quit helping me if I don't fix it
My brass float was full of gas and sat on the bottom of the tank, so I soldered that up. Like M/shake340 says Megaparts and other places have what I need so I'll just order a new float and sock.
In the meantime, I used a Gm sock I had and put that on the pipe with a 3/8 90 degree fitting [after I drilled it out to size].
