The "old" one was working when I pulled it out. I had to grind the head off the round head machine screw as someone walloed the straight slot out and I could not get it loose, then the body off the screw was a little tight getting it out. When I was ordering a few odds and ends I had Mike throw in a new temp sending unit thinking I would just go ahead and put a new one in. NOW got the body of the old one out last night and got a new brass screw from here at work and will re-install the "old" one back tonight when I get home.
