Consider replacing the gauge with an Lowrance LMF-200 multi-function gauge and an EP-60R fuel flow sender instead of repairing the old system. You program your tank size into it and it and it gives you extremely accurate fuel level data based on the flow to the engine, not the position of the sender. You also get fuel flow data which can be very handy for finding your optimum cruising speed. Add speed data with a GPS or a paddle wheel sensor, and you get real-time MPG in addition to fuel flow and and fuel level.
