Thanks all for the encouraging words. Though my gauge and bezel are not perfect, since they may be original to the car, and the quality of the repops are questionable, I think I'll order a rebuild kit. The float is probably the 1928 original too, and that might be the problem. How low do you reckon I need to have the gas level in the tank, with the rear of the car jacked up of course, to prevent gas from leaking out?
