Yeah, it would have even stunk if it would have failed on the freeway a few 
hundred miles from home.  I guess the bright side to it failing is that I 
am now thinking of doing the engine swap that I have always wanted to 
do.  I can't see putting a lot of time or money into the 35 year old inline 
6 engine when I can put in the 300 horse small block chevy that I already 
have for it.

I had the same thing happen to my car a few years ago.  They had to change 
the whole fuel tank sender unit out.  The part was $400 by itself.  Ouch!!!!


In liberty,
