I replaced original 15 gallon gas tank with a 21 gallon tank and now the gas gauge does not read correctly. What can I do to fix this problem?

Did we by chance invest in the SENDING UNIT FOR THE DEEPER (21 GAL) TANK?
I have the same tank under my '77 CJ5.
I had major problems with the fill hose (mine is bigger than yours)...It did not want to cooperate!
Right now you probably have a full tank, until you use up 6-7 Gallons.
Respond?
Love, Turddog
