Shaun"s reply in 2 parts:
Cliff,
Cost of repairs is determined upon disassembly and after testing components, then I'll contact you with cost and time to complete along with your approval for repairs.
Now then an average cost to repair these is starting at $125.00 and up to $400.00 in extreme cases.
That would include cleaning, resizing the float, new strainer, and testing. If replacement parts are needed that would be additional.
Looking at yours it appears there may be fuel leaking from the top due to all the silicone I see. and the ground wire is missing.
Turnaround time is usually one week.
Part 2 of reply
Cliff,
This is a service that I do as needed, not a business so I don't want it to get out of hand if you know what I mean.
You can share that the service is available, inquires by e-mail.

Bill, don't waste your time or money on a used tank. A new one of quality is dead easy to find, and is pretty cheap considering.
Also, we need to thank Cliff for digging up that rebuild info. If I could have gotten my original 67 one redone for say, 200 cdn or so, I would have done it for sure. I threw it out (and it was still working) thinking it would be a good time for a new one. Boy was I wrong. The cheap replacement lasted one year, and I still dont have a working fuel gauge. Fool.
