I just purchased from Pelican and changed the fuel pump and the superseded fuel filter assembly in my 02/02 build R50. Thanks to your excellent step-by-step instructions, the install went great. However, when I completed the project, checked for leaks, and filled the tank the gauge now only shows 3/4 when completely topped up. Does the new complete fuel filter module replacement do this in the early build cars, or did I possibly route the hoses incorrectly, obstructing the full travel of the float level sender up top? I'm quite sure the level sending rods were not bent during installation. And why does both the fuel pump AND the new filter module assembly have float level senders? Which one actually sends the level to the gauge?Thanks again. Your site is a fantastic resource!

The sending unit should be on the left side. YOu may have bent the arm when installing.
