Stop in for a cup of coffee

This one's out of mine, looking to replace because I don't know if I can get it clean enough, hasn't been on the road for some years. What do you do to refurbish, outside work, new sender?

I hit the outside of mine with slipplate, restored it. Inside depends how bad it is rust wise. Mine was just varnish so mineral spirits sloshed around then drained, alcohol to get the min spirits out then sealed it. Worked fine so far. Sending units are a pia. Hopefully yours is good, replacements suck. Save the old lock ring! The pad is the same as roofing felt.
