Dick,

My original level sender started acting all kinds of crazy. I finally replaced it with a new unit.

When I first checked it against the dip stick, it was reading high. I pulled it back out and compared the bend of the arm in the old one against the new one when at full droop. I needed to bend the new arm slightly to get the same geometry. All is well now.

FWIW, you do NOT need to drain the oil to change the sender.
