ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved fuel sender mechanism for indicating the level of fuel in a fuel tank of a motor vehicle. The fuel sender is of the type having a tubular device extending from the exterior to the interior of the fuel tank to permit fuel to be withdrawn from the tank through the tubular device. A variable resistance device, secured to the tubular device, is controlled by a float mechanism that changes in position as a function of the fuel level in the fuel tank. The improvement comprises the addition of a flexible joint in the tubular device for the purpose of insuring that the fuel intake end of the tubular device is in contact with the bottom of the fuel tank, thereby, to permit precise location of the variable resistance device and the float mechanism controlling it.
