There was another guy here who had luck making his sender work better by adding another ground wire from the swinging arm to fuel pick up rod. Not sure if it'll help in your case or not.
If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

If you buy another, try rosevillemoparts.com. They are a pretty good company to deal with.

The reason most dont work is because people dont check them for arm swing compared to the old one.That and some forget the ground.I run a wire from the sender to the body for a ground as here the strap rusts off quick.That and remember the gauges werent that accurate even new.Gad a few new cars in the 60s and 70s that the gauges were off.Rocky
