Richard, the tooling was in use in Canada for the making of the previous 40, 000+? (number unknown to me) carrier fuel tanks, without senders.

The fuel tank sender, and the fuel pick up both have a Ford of Canada part number.
The pick up mounting ring has a TL (Brit?) part number. Maybe this is the problem. (they too would have been made by Ford of Canada)

On the Pinions, yes I have seen both. The fine thread seems more logical to me. I have wondered if the difference was the origin. Brit, Can. or US?
The small pinion bearing was different between U.K. and Can. production.
