With the problem fixed(not solved)it leaves me wondering if it will return since I couldn't figure out how the gas got in in the first place. It could be a micro leak that I couldn't find, if so how long will it take to fill it again. The gas gauge worked until the float was 2/3 full, that's 44 years. The float has been sitting in gas for that long, I wonder if it's possible it absorbed enough gas over that time until it wouldn't float. It seems as though if it had happened fast there would be a noticeable problem with the float, a crack, hole, something.
