fuel tank issue

[Spike2450]

Hi again!!
Trying to install a new fuel tank sender with the five hole screw pattern. Does this install on a set pattern i.e. it'll only line up with the existing hole in one position.
The sender wouldn't line up with the pattern, i tried the old gasket and it would also only line up in one position.
The only problem with the float arm etc would have been facing the stern and hard up against the rear of the tank and impossible to install.
Any help would be great.

Hi again
Just found a web site with the same Faria senders and they have two listed to the same spec,
one is listed as S/STN and the other D/STN.
Any ideas what this means?

Try wemausa.com as well. A much better sender than the float type and orientation isn?t an issue.

Hi
Thanks for the replies, i've now sussed it, what i needed to do was to undo the nut and spin the mechanism away from the tank side.
