22-G-V Petrol Gauge Warning Light Failure.

I have sent you a spare petrol gauge tank unit. Have been in touch with Smith's, who claim the idea of petrol harming the insulation of the leads as being impossible. However, if you can exchange units and let me have the faulty one, we may get more sense.
