Ok, so the light that is suppose to come on when the fuel is low is on all the time. I was reading through the manual that I have. It appears that is may be a bad immersion tube transmitter. Does that sound right and it is easy to replace? Thank you for your help.

Dave

Hey Sleepwalker, I figured that is what it was called. Any idea where it is on my model, 123. Thanks.

I can't remember off-hand the specifics about your 85 300D, but I believe that the fuel sender becomes accessible once you remove the first aid kit and its housing.
