The aux fuel gauge (photo attached) on our J-4A Cub Coupe is inoperative and leaks when full. We suspect the float has failed and a new gasket is needed. I'm told the gauge unscrews from the fitting for removal but a special tool is needed to do it. Is that true? Is a special tool needed and, if so, where an I get one. Also, I can't seem to find any information or parts or a replacement for the gauge. Any ideas where I can get a tool or a new gauge, if needed?
Thanks!
