I've replaced four myself.....in houses I have owned or my kids places. VERY SIMPLE Project. Save yourself the money...
Did this myself when I ordered my 100 gallons in early Dec.

Based on the gauge, that would have been way less than what we burnt last year. Oil man said it clicked after eighty-something.

Took me about 20 minutes, so you're the better man than me. Still tho' a quik-fix.

And even if someone bollocks it up, the part is on hand and a technician onle need be paid for a few minutes labor.
