In search for my ‘37 Pontiac (no hate,please)gas tank, led me to your posts. Thank you, for all of the possibilities to ck. Almost bald pulling hair out. Lol. Will heat gun, to try to separate the two flanges. Anyone see an issuer ? ( yes, well rinsed). Thanks so much.

Thanks so much, for all of the advice. Ordered 2 corks,from Bob’s. And a sock filter from Jegs. Still PB soaking, and working on getting both gears moving. Using a feeler gage to push/dislodge the rust. Working up to getting emory sheet in there. There is at least a pint of rust chunks/powder in tank. Soaking and cleaning the tank, while looking for a replacement. I am that much closer to ‘Beep, Beep” !!

Great news, there is slight movement, from a gear ,yeh ! Watched some videos, on how they are to work. If replacing the corks, how will I know if a different type of float will work the same ? Actually the bag looks/feels of plastic.

Thank you, I would definitely need to replace both corks,and filter bag. Gears are rusted together, will wire brush , maybe Swiss files , to see if I can get things moving. No bends, nor visible holes, will do a light pressure test when clean, to ck for pin holes. Are there any cautions, that I should be aware of ? Have volt meter, but unsure as to what to meter ? 0-3- ohms, is the requirement, I believe.

This is great info, thank you all. Have our ‘37 Pontiac Sedan fuel sending unit. It’s frozen, and am finding it difficult to find a suitable replacement. You mentioned following you on post #344 ? But for an hour ,now I can’t figure out how to find that post, or any numbering system for the post. I am very interested in rebuilding the ori sending unit. Thank you for any help in this matter.

Thank you all , I did call Kurt. Received it in a couple days. Ready to install on the car tomorrow . That’s one step closer to “beep beep “.

Need to rebuild my fuel pump, coming across ‘double ‘ pumps. I don’t understand. Any help would be appreciated !
