Dick,
I finished a prototype of a new low fuel sender. It is an inch square and about an inch longer. If you have the space in your system, I would like to send it to you for your opinion. The vent channel is separate from the float chamber so there should be no influence on the float by movement of fuel in the vent line. It also uses a brass float which should pretty much last forever. There are always concerns, though, and the abominable ethanol might remain an issue as the guide wire is brass as is the float and any absorbed water in the fuel might corrode the brass and eventually prevent float movement. Who knows when the madness will end.
