    Finally a video that shows how to repair, not replace and with a good explanation as to how it works.

    Great job, as always, John. When I got to the end of the video I remembered that my fuel gauge is a stick with lines drawn in it.

    Exactly what I needed thanks, 1976 1275gt Austin mini, almost exact same unit.

    I repaired a "closed cell foam" float by drilling a hole in it just large enough for an automotive marker lamp (baseless bulb about 1/2" OD) Buoyancy regained and gage works great again. Drill hole slightly undersized for a tight press fit of the bulb glass into the foam.

    brilliant , easy to follow video instructions, saved me so much time and ordering a sender unit that I didn't need. Fuel gauge now perfect. Thanks

    Thanks - could not find a replacement for my 1964 pontiac bonneville fuel sender - I was able to repair the old one after watching your video.

    John, I am new to MGB ownership and regularly check out your videos. They are very helpful especially this one for the fuel sensor. I am happy to report my gauge is now fairly accurate after following your video fix. Thank you

    Good video, thanks. The sending unit on my '74 B was so gunked up, I replaced it. Prior owner had allowed old gas in the tank. I eventually was able to clean up the bad gas and the car runs nicely now.

    That was really interesting as the fuel gauge on my Triumph 2500 has stopped working or only comes up to 1/4 full so this could solve it, thank you

    Another excellent video. My fuel guage is a little jumpy, I wonder if this may be the cause, I'll check it out this spring.

    Hi. Great video! Love the deep explanation about inside that box. Didn't understood very well ( not my main language) but the thin wire could be replace with other thin wire? Why I need to keep the old one their?

    Also I wish I had seen a video like this several years ago when my sending unit failed. The new units are not consistent as I get a different reading each time my gauge starts to hit the red. (1977) Sometimes I need 1.5 gallons and other times I need 2 or more. I try to rely on the trip odometer but that sometime is finicky, possibly due to age.

    My gauge only swings between 1/4 (empty) and 3/4 (full.) Clearly not a float problem and I find it strange that, if a calibration problem, it is at both ends of the range equally.
