Is it for a electrical sender, if so you could have a poor conection that is causing the sensor to heat up

hi 360ste,

its not the actual sender that is heating up(i dont think), its the metal t-piece that gets hot just worried it might get so hot it catches fire as the fuel was in a rubber fuel pipe before, but cut a piece out and added a metal t-piece to hold the sender.
