REFLECTOR: Flush Fit Fuel Sender Pockets

[Peter Braswell]

Bob,
I hear you.  I had capacitance gauges in my Glastar and they never
calibrated right.  I'm going to give them a second chance in my SERG
however …  BUT!  I did also choose to install the site gauges also so I'll
at least have those to fall back on.

-Peter
