This weekend I was replacing the rubber hose to the in-tank fuel pump and I had a small problem. While I was putting the pump/sender assembly back in the tank I accidently (?) knocked the float loose from the holder and it fell into the gas tank. It landed outside the round baffle where the pump sits and floated away, out of sight in the tank. I couldn't see it, so I couldn't get it out. I needed the car today, so I put it back together and now I have no fuel gage. I can't decide whether to remove the tank and retrieve the float, or to just get another float and install it. I have a parts car (a wagon that's full of parts and junk) but I would have to remove the fuel sender to get the float. Which would be easier? Thanks for any response.
