Had to change out the fuel tank on my sons 04 Buick Rendezvous. The replacement used tank did not come with the fuel pump/fuel sender so I had to swap it out from the old tank to the replacement tank. I had the old tank on sawhorses next to the car, and the new tank directly in front of it also on sawhorses.
Got everything put together and the replacement tank up in place and all buttoned up. As I was crawling out from the rear of the vehicle I found this plastic piece laying on the ground by the rear wheel under the car. The car started up with no problems once I put some fuel into the tank, but I don't think the fuel gauge is reading correctly. One start it shows full (only about 3 gallons in it) another start shows low fuel and the needle on empty.
My son is driving the car today so I don't know how it is reading or if it is still inconsistent. Anyone know what this piece may be? I don't have any idea how it came to be under the rear of the car. I have tried looking at fuel pumps on line but can't see this part at all!
Flared on one end, flat on one side, has a channel on the other side, and the one end has an O-ring right under the flat cap.
