Actually I think its negative earth Rovers. Seem to recall all my negative
earth trucks have a brass or some similar type alloy float. Oh, by the way,
its cylindrical not spherical.
The float arms on these trucks were rather ingeniously adjusted for length.
The sender had a pickup arm that stuck into the tank and the float had a
similar arm attached. They just overlapped the two arm so the float was at
the proper length then soldered the two arms together with two globs of
solder. It might be a way to attach an ersatz float to the old arm
especially if its plastic or some other heat affected float
