I noticed that my fuel gauge isn't working. Naturally, I assumed it was the sending unit. I unplugged the plastic plug only to find that one of the tabs is pretty rusted out. The other tab is good. As I was getting ready to start using PB Blaster on the bolts, I noticed that the wire that connects to it is broken. I think that was the main reason why my gauge wasn't working. I do have a nice used replacement that I got for $50. Is it worth trying to put a new one in? or can I solder a new tab on the existing unit? If so, will it work? I am mainly concerned about trying to get the 6 or so rusted bolts, but if I can get them out, then it may be worth it to have a newer unit.
Thoughts? Ideas? Points of rebuttal?
