I just had my fuel senders rebuilt by California Speedometer. They did a great job as far as I can tell...

While I was pushing a fuel line onto one of the sender connections I noticed that it rotated slightly, about 1/2"(not the actual sender the tubes that the lines connect to). I'm not sure if this is normal? The other sender doesn't do this?

The last thing I want is to have it leak after I took the time to paint and reconnect everything!!

Thanks again,

Steve

Steve,

If you look closely at the photo below you will note that the metal tubes are welded into the flange. If yours rotated that means
that tube is NOT welded and that's NO GOOD - SEND IT BACK!
