Years ago I took the tank sender out of my 64 GTO, used a torch to melt the solder on the main fuel line, used a drift punch to flare/open up the opening to 1/2" tube, and then I resoldered the tank sender.

I also put the fuel level sender on the 1/2" tube in the right spot so it worked again.

It worked well enough but if I ever put a high performance tank under my GTO it will have a sump and -12 fittings and I will leave the stock fuel level sender where it is and plug the hose nipple at that location.

A proper sump works SO MUCH BETTER vs a modified pick-up. JMO

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
