Does that mean it needs to be standing upright compared to lying down as in Andy's picture? If it does what issues would this cause with the sender? How hard would it be to put a new one in which would work which the tank lying down?

The after market fuel gauge/senders I've used just manipulate the float arm to get it to suit the tank being used.

So it should just be a case of lengthening, shortening and/or bending the float arm.

That said, i try to set it up in such a way that it shows empty a goodly bit before it is empty.
