How many straps?

[chrger1967]

I climbed under my 67 Charger to check out why the fuel gauge might not be working (Looks like it's the sending unit) and saw there was only one strap. The tank is solid, tight and not moving around at all and I did not see any more holes where the straps would go. I'm guessing it only needs one strap?

Are you talking about the straps that hold up the tank or the ground strap for the sending unit?

A gallon of gas roughly weighs 6 + pounds. With a 19 gal. capacity tank as in my 66 Charger, that's 114 lbs of fuel in the tank when full, plus the weight of tank itself ! And to think it's all hanging and dependent on that "question mark" formed bolt into the frame with a nut ... all while sloshing around while going down the road. I try not to think about it .....

The one strap is toward the front of the car.
