...i replaced my fuel  gauge sender unit when i had the engine out anyways.
looks like it would be a hell of a job to do with the engine in. friend of
mine drilled a huge hole through the firewall from the inside of the car
rite above the sender unit, but you'd have to know EXACTLY what you do
'cause otherwise you'd puncture the tank and get blown to Mars...
  hope this helps...
