When we bought our 66 in April, It had a new fuel sensor element installed in the gas tank. I found that when the tank is full, the gage reads slightly over 1/2. When the gage reads empty, I have 1/2 tank. Was the wrong element used? Installed incorrectly? Thanks in advance for any help here.

With a linear error like that, it sounds like the float arm was bent when the sender was installed; if you have small arms, you should be able to reach inside the tank and "un-bend" the float arm until the gauge reads correctly. Photo below shows what the sender looks like out of the tank.
