Ok so the previous owner replaced some of the fuel system in my Challenger. Gas tank, pump and filter. I got the car and found the guage did not work. So I pull the sending unit and it's completely rusted. The pickup is completely corroded, the filter is rotten and plugged up, and the brass float is leaky and full of gas. The entire inside of the tube is rusty. When I pulled it out of thr tank, rust dust was falling everywhere. Not to mention the ground strap was so rusted it was not making contact. The mechanic that was working on the car was working on the carb to get it to run. I am not a mechanic by trade but I find that to be pretty damn funny. I cannot imagine putting a sending unit like that back in the car especially after installing a new tank, pump and filter, then wondering why the carb is not right.
I know it's been answered before, I have read the posts, but where is the best place to get the best sending unit?
Also, Should I replace my lines? I have not checked to see if they are rusty. Are they stainless?
