It isn't that bad. I need to do yet another, so when I do it, I'll try to get better pics, instead of my drawings (can you tell I'm no artist??? Maybe a good project for my CAD class..)
Anyway, some of it will be more clear once you pull the sender. The little hole that I have labeled drill this hole is the only one you need to drill, the lower square hole is where the other bolt goes through. The sender from Whitney has the go on backward to how they normally mount it, meaning the plastic housing has to go toward the rectangular mounting plate on the factory sump. To do that, and keep the float arm moving, it has to be spacered away from the plate, you can either do like I did, and use several nuts, or as Midnight Rider, and make spacers, doesn't matter. Just get is spaced away enough for the arm to swing freely.
