fuel sender question

At half a tank of fuel is the sender float extended out farthest toward the drivers side of tank?

At around half a tank my float rattles around on the drivers side of the tank really bad, my exhaust is loud I know that but always around half a tank.

Yes, the float is pointing directly sideways around half a tank. I'm sure you could make a minor adjustment to the float arm and it wouldn't hit the side of the tank.

It will be obvious once you pull it out. Just give 'er a little bend. Basically what you would to to adjust the toilet float.
