Re: Fuel Pump Woes
Some things are not worth modifying because you run into trouble like this. I suggest you use drop-in parts at the fuel tank and modify your fuel gauge to work with it.

Empty tank at 1/2 gage is how a fourth-gen sender behaves. You might want to make sure that you did not get parts mixed up or that they sent you the wrong parts.

Re: Fuel Pump Woes
Supposedly GM superseded the original part at some point, I just found this out recently looking for a new bucket. Over at Rock Auto you will see that it shows "first design" and "second design" in the list. This is one of the reasons I would not shop for parts like this on eBay.
