Marking tank for gauge sender: 2008-11-20
Nikon Coolpix 8400
Marking the top of the fuel tank for the gauge sender hole. I marked the main cross-lines first with a fine felt-tip pen, then added small ticks to show where the ID of the boss and the split-ring should be. You can see I've already marked the positions of the screw-holes.

The threaded boss in position on the marked lines. It has just-visible felt-tip pen marks on it at 3 o'clock to show where the cable will exit. With that correctly aligned, the screw hole positions were marked. There is no mention of the inner set of screw-holes in the instructions from Europa; presumably they are for some different type of mounting.

The neat hole produced by a 102mm holesaw in the port headrest base to give clearance for the head of the fuel gauge sender.
