Erased the bloody fuel level indicator mess.

Seems like nearly everyone on here has seen and fretted over a rusted fuel send unit. Mine never worked, and I just got used to the red light on the dash and watching the trip meter.
After rehabbing the tank with Caswell epoxy tank liner, I wasn't putting this back in as it was looking.
While replacing the fuel pump wires, I decided to just grind off the whole bloody mess.
Made it much easier to clean off remaining rust with a wire brush.
Now this sucker won't be polluting my lovely tank.
Saved $269 on a new one and spent only $50 on some other parts, like a filler cap gasket kit. So yes, euromotoelectrics got some of my money.
As always, lots of choice words for the previous owner who parked this thing with 14,000 miles on it and let it fill up with water. Evil!
