my float on my antique oil tank gauge has become cracked so it no longer floats on the surface. I'd like to replace it because the gauge still works great - giving me a very accurate read -by number - for how much fuel is left in the tank, as opposed to just telling me if I have 3/4, 1/2, 1/4 tank etc. I can't seem to find anything online specifically used for this purpose. Can anyone think of something else I can hook onto the end of this wire that is heavy enough to pull the cord out of the gauge yet light enough to float on top of the oil?
