Hello Murray. The float is plastic on the new fuel sending unit. The old one, the one I took out, had a brass float. Neither had holes or fuel within the float that I could determine by shaking it, the float. Great recommendation, as we can mark each, as we go, as not being the issue. Always Flow Chart it I have been taught!! It will get figured out as there is a great deal of mopar talent on FABO. Hopefully, it's something quite simple that is staring right at us. To be honest, as Just Send It suggested that the "NEW" sending unit DOES NOT MEAN it works/Functions as it should. I am going to sink the sending unit in a pan of gas and see what happens as you suggeted. Stay tuned, as I am challenged by this, and most learn from such a frustration. Thank you for your input and help on this. Appreciated. Sgrip65
