Merry Christmas to All!

I have been reading with interest the various threads regarding fuel senders especially with respect to QB wings. I do have a couple of questions for the list.
  • I want to test my sender movement after installation. Given that the resistance ranges from 32-250 ohms, I thought I would test the empty tank resistance and then flip the tank upside down and test again. Is this a reasonable way to test the travel?
  • I like John G’s idea to flush the tanks with water and then blow fresh air through to dry out them out. Is there any downside to this approach?


Cheers

I bought a new shop vac for this purpose because I didn't want to be blowing dust into the tank. I did this in summer or fall as the humidity level is extremely low at those times and air temps are higher.
