    Finally a video that shows how to repair, not replace and with a good explanation as to how it works.

    brilliant , easy to follow video instructions, saved me so much time and ordering a sender unit that I didn't need. Fuel gauge now perfect. Thanks

    Great job, as always, John. When I got to the end of the video I remembered that my fuel gauge is a stick with lines drawn in it.

    I repaired a "closed cell foam" float by drilling a hole in it just large enough for an automotive marker lamp (baseless bulb about 1/2" OD) Buoyancy regained and gage works great again. Drill hole slightly undersized for a tight press fit of the bulb glass into the foam.

    Thanks - could not find a replacement for my 1964 pontiac bonneville fuel sender - I was able to repair the old one after watching your video.

    John, I am new to MGB ownership and regularly check out your videos. They are very helpful especially this one for the fuel sensor. I am happy to report my gauge is now fairly accurate after following your video fix.
    Thank you

    Good video, thanks. The sending unit on my '74 B was so gunked up, I replaced it. Prior owner had allowed old gas in the tank. I eventually was able to clean up the bad gas and the car runs nicely now.

    A tutorial on fuel gauge calibration would be nice.

    Hi. Great video! Love the deep explanation about inside that box. Didn't understood very well ( not my main language) but the thin wire could be replace with other thin wire? Why I need to keep the old one their?

    That was really interesting as the fuel gauge on my Triumph 2500 has stopped working or only comes up to 1/4 full so this could solve it, thank you

    Another excellent video. My fuel guage is a little jumpy, I wonder if this may be the cause, I'll check it out this spring.

    Also I wish I had seen a video like this several years ago when my sending unit failed. The new units are not consistent as I get a different reading each time my gauge starts to hit the red. (1977) Sometimes I need 1.5 gallons and other times I need 2 or more. I try to rely on the trip odometer but that sometime is finicky, possibly due to age.

    Great video but I wish he would have used a modern multimeter for us DIY guys. I always struggle with the multimeter settings.

    My gauge only swings between 1/4 (empty) and 3/4 (full.) Clearly not a float problem and I find it strange that, if a calibration problem, it is at both ends of the range equally.
