The Plans call for a maximum of 1/8” clearance between the full empty position and the bottom skin, and maximum of 1/8” clearance between the full full position and the top skin.  Since the plans call this a maximum clearance, is there a reason why not to have the sender rest on the bottom skin if the tank actually gets that low on fuel? I’m thinking that minimum could be 0” and max of 1/8”.  

   

The only “reason” I could think of would be dissimilar metals touching (fuel sender wire and bottom skin), but even this would be mitigated through the coating of fuel on the two metals.  

   

What have others done? I currently get full empty and full full Ohm readings just as the sender contacts the bottom/top, so I’m not concerned with accuracy.
