<VV> RE: [FC] Fuel Tank Sender Mix-Up

[* Greenbrier Goon *]

Well, I seem to have solved the problem with the shortened pickup tube on my 
fuel tank sender.

I used a compression fitting (union) with a cut piece of metal fuel line 
left over from the junk FC. I was able to replace the missing 3 inches and 
fit a new filter.
