New tank went in...
...more problems came out. :/ When the fuel sending unit was removed and put in a safe place until the new tank came in, even though I was extremely gentle with it I discovered that something has shifted. These senders have two metal end stops for the full and empty states and in between you get a resistance between 30 and 230 or so. An empty tank will cause a high resistance but for some reason it now sticks at 160 ohms for an empty tank, which is about 1/4 tank on the needle. Curiously the full resistance has dropped to 3 ohms, so a full tank swings the needle past the F and pegs it. It's almost as if internally the slider has moved on its pivot rod, but neither AMC nor the internet implies this is adjustable. Well the tank's full now. I'll have to take a look once the tank is pretty much emptied out again. For those also asking about just buying a new one, there are none.
