|  What is this doing in there? (weird) For a long time my gas gauge quit working and I traced it down to my sending unit. Today, as I was changing it, I found the float had a little gas in it. It was the stock one, but that wasn't why it wasn't working. I hit on the bottom of the tank, and heard a metal clink inside. Guess what I found?! It was a huge old 5" spring!!! Somehow, I think it got wraped on the arm and just never came off until I took it out. What is this spring doing in there?

|  Is it one of the springs like they put on the end of a gas filler nozzle sometimes? Thats the only logical explanation I can come up with.
