Need some advice guys. I've got a Formula 223Ls, the gas gauge is sticking so I order a new sending unit. Its a universal model with a float attached to a long arm. When I pulled the original out it is a tube style with a float inside it. Should I stick with this type or go ahead and use the universal? I'm worried that with an 85 gallon tank. if I take off will all the gas heaving to the rear of the tank that it might bend the arm on the universal job.

blown formula

Go to the Formula category.... There was a discussion of the different types there..... the "new" tube type are more accurate. The float arm will not break, but the follow the surge and do not register accurately.... typically 1/4 to 1/2 tank error in gauge from my experience. Do not ever depend on the gauge , it will mess you up every time!!
