[C320-list] Fuel sender

[james_delong]

I'm having the same problem...getting the floor boards off the top of the fuel tank. After unscrewing them, the inboard one simply slides about 6 inches. Can't get it up, can't twist it, slide it further or anything. Almost, but resisted, cutting the damn thing in half to get it out!

Any advise on how to get to the sender? Someone mentioned an access hatch in the stern cabin. 453 doesn't have one. Just a solid wall. 

Any ideas are welcomed!

Thx Chris
The fuel tank is 20 engine hours from full ... think that is something
like 20x1.3 litres ... therefore 26 litres off the full 72 capacity.
That would leave 46 litres still in there. I have tried tapping the
side of the tank with a screw driver handle and cannot detect a
different 'note' telling me what the level is.
Guess I will pull the sender to see what is going on down there ...
problem getting the locker board out of the way ;(
