[T3] 12v part in a 6v car? Need sender help!


<x-charset iso-8859-1>Well, I am certain that this query has been asked/answered before, but I
really could use some help.

My gas gauge needle jumps around whenever the fuel in the tank gets down to
halfway or so. I tried pulling the wire from the sender and turning the key
to the on position. The gauge needle stays buried at "E" so I assume my
wiring is fine. My guess is that the sender float contacts and/or wires have
some "dead" spots due to some form of corrosion. If I open up the sender I
am sure to break those delicate little wires. Any suggestions for cleaning
my current sender without opening it up? A bath of brake cleaner, perhaps?

I imagine that a like-new 6v sender will be tough to locate so...Will a 12v
sender work in a 6v car? If not, why?

Thanks!

- Todd
