Fuel Tank Sender

Hi,

I'm just about to fit the fuel sender, I've placed it into the tank and bent it in the middle to reduce it's length so that it is just off the bottom but it still hits the baffle if I shorten it any more it won't get near the bottom.
Any suggestions, if I leave it as it is it will rest against the baffle when full and not register full and register empty when it's not.

I think!

I bent my fuel sender arm in a right funny shape. It doesnt need to be a in a straight line!.. Mines like an upside down question mark, (exagerated) so the rod is sort of both sides of the centre pivot. took a bit of trial and error, but works OK. Ie I shifted the Swinging Arc, closer to the sender, and still retained the upper and lower limits in the right places.. Practice on a wire coathanger first, so you dont mess up the sender.
