Hi Roger
Well done for getting your gauge to function, it's a fiddly operation with those fine coil wires. I quite like the moving iron type, as the needle will "dance" as the fuel sloshes round so it is reassuring that there is something in the tank.
Original senders are about 30 ohms, I think the Minor ones are nearer 80 ohms so they won't be as accurate. But as long as you know what a particular reading means that doesn't really matter.
