I agree with Kees, my gauge/sender unit have been trouble-free since I
bought the car 46 years ago. The needle fluctuates a bit but Mike's
solution would fix that. My advice is to stick to the original parts and
just fix them.

Subject: Re: [Healeys] Fuel Senders and gauges - again!
The very simple Smiths/Jaeger gauges are very reliable but they need to be
fitted properly. After 55+ years the sender of the fuel gauge may give up
because of corrosion or a leaking float or a capillary tube of a temperature
may break. All easily repaired or cheaply replaced. Look at the electronic
dash rubbish from Ford Mustang, BMW and most others. These can go wrong at
any time costing horrendous amounts of money to put them right or replace
them.
