I used a bit of plaster lathe, it was lighter than the hoe handle until I fixed the sender on my 4020. The sender on my MF-135 gave troubles when I bought it and the previous owner had been using a hammer handle. Both work for gauging fuel, both could cause a fire, both could introduce dirt to the fuel system to cause more troubles. Gauges that work are nice and both of mine now work. Speaking of fuel, watch out for the diaphragm of the fuel lift pump leaking fuel to the crankcase. It can do that and still supply fuel to the injection pump (or carburetor in my case). The gas tractor won't burn the bottom third of the tank when the lift pump quits pumping. Which leads one to dispute the gauge's display of avaiable fuel. Gerald J.
