[Healeys] Fuel sender

[Healey Bruce]

Jeff, this is what I did.  I had a cheap repro unit that failed.  I bought a 
refurbished original from the Nocks--not cheap, since I didn't have an 
original core to trade--and set it so it is reads empty with about 1 gal 
left in the tank.  Down side is full reads just over 3/4, but the scale is 
much smaller at the F end.
