This is my first post. Just found the forum.
After driving with a petrol gauge that always reads E. I started by looking inside the petrol tank. I could see the float laying on the bottom of the tank. It is still connected to the sending unit but not floating. I used a piece of wire to hook it and lift it with the car running (does not work with just the key turned on, must be running) and it reads on the gauge. I also found localy a replacement float that I will pick up later. It feels good to know what the problem is. I'm glad that it is not related to "The Prince of Darkness" (Lucas)
