If it were submerged, you'd still likely be OK, but if the fuel level was low enough that the sender mechanism was above the fuel line, it'd be sitting there in vapor, and... boom?
I'll definitely put it on my "don't try it" list, but I'm surprised I've never heard of anyone accidentally hooked it up wrong or otherwise sending a full non-resistance 12V into it by mistake.
Or maybe it happens all the time and it's still safe for some reason I haven't thought of?

It depends upon which network news show is recording the story. "Film at 11."
