It will work on the tank, but the issue might be mounting the sensor since it uses magnets on steel tanks. if you try to use a strap or bungie cord to remove any air voids use some vasoline inbetween the sensor & tank.

Thanks. I realize mounting it might be a challenge. I just wanted to make sure the non-ferrous aluminum won't interfere with the sensor's measurement. That does make we wonder about the float within the tank, too. It has a float, arm, and mechanical linkage to make the needle on the gauge move. Will that interfere with the readings?
