Or replace the plastic float with a Ford part: COAZ-9202-B, available at
your local dealer. These are brass and are otherwise identical to the
plastic floats on the Moss units. I got two of the latter, one with a crack
and another with a hole at the end of the float arm wire where the wire was
sheared into a sharp point during manufacture. Pretty simple to fix the
problem, but Moss didn't seem interested.

In the FWIW category, NOS Locators now is advertising a fuel sending units
with two electrical contacts on the float arm resistor. This is suppose to
help with the erratic readings on these units.
The NOS units do look reasonable well made, although all these current units
have a plastic float. The lever arm needs to be bent up on the end of the
circle where it encompasses the plastic float. This will keep the end of the
wire from wearing a hole into the float.
NOS Locaters also sells these on eBay under the same vendor name.
