I'm playing with different options on a few different sending units. I am unable to find a way to mount the bulkhead for the fuel return.
Here's an example of what I'm dealing with.
When using an aftermarket sending unit, this one came with the return line installed. I was told it was 3/8. It is not. I drilled and cut it out but there is no room on the unit for the hardware of the bulkhead to fit:
With the OEM sending unit, the fuel filter was complete trash and I cannot find a replacement. Plus, I figure good idea to swap out a 50-year-old sending unit.
Thought about drilling into the fuel tank, but I would not be able to reach the bulkhead to tighten it down from the sending unit opening.
Anyone reading this install one of these kits? If so I would greatly appreciate if you would kindly tell me how you mounted the fuel return return bulkhead.
Thanks, in advance!
