that float is from an early mustang. it is actually hollow brass, not =
solid (that would not float) and a drop in replacement.

Terry,
While I am reluctant to offer advice when you have the Randalls of the =
world speaking up, I would suggest that you consider one other issue. =
While I am not familiar with the TR3A fuel sender, I had a somewhat =
similar problem with a TR6 and the problem turned out to be a leaking =
float on the sending unit. A crack in the float can allow it to do =
funny things at different angles. Just something to check. I replaced =
the nylon (or whatever the material was) float with a solid one from an =
old Ford and I can almost guarantee that no concours judge will ever =
know the difference. Good luck. =20
