I have the original sending unit. I cleaned it, tested it, and put on a new sock. I tested the gauge and it is good. I am thinking of changing back to original. The original goes up to 35 ohms. That could be a difference as well. Should I change it or just bend the arm as of the repro as suggested? It is an auto city unit and tank.

Default repro vs stock

If your original is working properly I would reuse it. But I would like to know what you find in differences between your original and the repro. oms? float drop and shape and any others. Thanks, Mike

Not only did mine read incorrectly, it leaked very badly at the gasket. Finally gave up and cleaned up the old one and put it back in.

Th original goes to 35 ohms. The reproduction only goes to 30. That could be a difference as well. Th original tests god. I am going to hook up the wires.to it and move the float up and down and see what the gas gauge does?
