Reversible float for use in a tank gauging system

A reversible float assembly, comprising:

• a float disposed on a liquid and having a body with a first surface portion and a second surface portion on generally opposite sides of said body;
• an elongated flexible member having an upper end held above the liquid and the lower end adapted to be connected to said float;
• a first attachment disposed on said first surface portion of said body and constructed and arranged to be attached with said elongated flexible member;
• a second attachment disposed on said second surface portion of said body and constructed and arranged to be attached with said elongated flexible member;
• said lower end of said elongated flexible member being disposed above said liquid and connected to one of said first and second attachments;
• at least one guide eye constructed and arranged to receive an elongate guide member in such fashion as to restrict movement of said body to generally vertical movement, said at least one guide eye being disposed on said body at a position between said first attachment and said second attachment such that when said body floats on said liquid in a first orientation with said second surface portion and said second attachment submerged in the liquid said guide eye is also submerged in the liquid, and when said body floats on the liquid in a second orientation with said first surface portion and said first attachment submerged in the liquid said guide eye is above the liquid.
