Hi all,  After several trips with my 300F, I determined that I should be looking for a gas station when approaching 175 miles travel.  Have never run out of gas yet.

The bend of the float arm needs to correct. To straight and it will hit top of tank and read 3/4 or there abouts. To much curve and it will hit the bottom of the tank when empty and also be incorrect since it may read 1/4 or so and leave you out of gas when the gauge still shows some left. Try measuring half a tank and play around with the float wire to show 1/2 full and hope for the best. Then try a few trips to see usage against gauge reading to see what should be in the tank. Read once that is why most 300 owners carry 3-5 gallons in a jug for emergencies.

I few months ago  I bought my sending unit from Vans Auto. The only problem is that It does not seem to be accurate. It seemed to only read from 1/8 to 3/4. My G is in the shop so when I get it back ( hopefully very soon ) I can fill up the tank and see what it reads. Then I might carry a 5 gallon can of gas when it just gets to 1/8 and keep running until its empty and see how the gauge reads.

As far as a radiator comb look on Amazon. They have many to offer. Just pick one you like.

Hope this helps.

Two questions, for suggestion, if any....

1. I wish to replace the Fuel Pick Up/ Sending Unit.  Any suggestions on who to purchase a correct one from?

2. I wish to buy a Radiator Comb to straighten up the fins on the Radiator and the A/C Condensor.  Any suggestions on where to purchase one from?

Thanks!
