Re: The English are coming! Or..another C10 in the Motherland.

Quick update as I start to reassemble Woody.

The fuel gauge has not worked correctly since I took ownership, the problem becoming very apparent when I took the sender out to replace the gasket a few months ago.

Anybody spot what the issue might be?



With the tank rattling I spent a happy 30 minutes using the skills honed from years on the Fairground ‘Fishing the ball from the jar…and failing’ to retrieve the offending article and source of the fuel gauge not gauging…



Armed with my best plumbing arsenal



Attached the live feed back onto the control…box?



And tested with my faithful multi meter…… WIN!!! No picture so you will have to take my word for it.

However… Rather surprised at the state of the seal after 4 months.

.

Looks worse than the one I replaced.

I will be continuing to put Woody back together but, unfortunately, he might well be looking for a new home.

So, if you are interested in a genuine, solid truck with most of the upgrades that you would require to be done then this is the one for you. Drop me a PM if you want a chat.

And on that Bomb Shell….
