I'm not very good on searches but I think there was a post of someone wanting to know the size of the copper wire in a hydrostatic fuel gauge. I'm working on one from a 1932 coupe. It appears to be original and never temper with. The size of the copper wire is .110 diameter and 1 7/8" long. I would guess they are all the same regardless of year but not sure.
Hydrostatic fuel gauge wire, 32

Shouldn't that be a 'tube' (air line) as opposed to a "wire"?

Oh, so it's the "Calibrating Wire" as referred to in the Service Bulletin...
