How much time will it take?

(1/2) > >>

ORCoaster:
I made the mistake of putting 5 gallons of fuel into my tank as I was nearing the 300-plus mile mark and the needle didn't seem to be in the right place.  I don't drive much a day so it takes a while for me to get that many miles on the tank.

After I filled it up I realized that what I needed to do was drop the tank and service the sender. 

So my question is:  How long should I plan on timewise to drop the tank in the future and clean up that sending unit.  The gauge on the dash seems fine as I apply 12 VDC to it, the sweep is all the way across to the full mark. 

fatmobile:
Is this the MK2?
 You reach the senser in the trunk. No need to drop the tank.

Dennis Froelich:
Most likely his VW Pickup.

ORCoaster:
Yes, the 81 Pick me up is the one I need to drop and do some R/M on the sender.

fatmobile:
That's hard to tell how much time it would take.
 Probably an hour to drop it.
 Then you have to pull the sender and deal with that.
 If none of the lines are brittle,... 2 to 3 hours?
