couldn't you just extend the arm on the bird sender?

that is exactly what you have with series land rover senders - a two piece arm and some very small clips that look like staples.

You bend the arm to shape to give the right readings and use the clips - belt and braces I used plumbing solder - I can send you a strip if you need that - and dcone well away from the petrol tank.

A piece of wire coat hanger or thick gardening wire could be used.
