Dr. Ed and Michael:
That's what I did (cut the slot all the way through).

I also made my hole a little oblong (see picture). But
the most important thing about this installation is
the ground. If you look closely you can see where I
tack-welded the arm to the top of the sending unit.
It is critical that the two parts make good contact
and both of my sending units were intermittent even
when bolted tightly together. Mine are the Aircraft
Spruce universal senders (p/n 05-16710).
Good luck,
Scott Laughlin

the rubber gasket pressure on the outside of the
tank. Probably the best solution in this case.
