Title: Fuel Sending Units
Post by: Brad @ SCJB on April 08, 2009, 08:42:30 AM

This is the fuel sending unit that was in the tanks of the Southwind...

Medallion Instraments #B-1321

[attachimg=1]

Is this a common part i can find at any auto store...or is there a common fuel sender i can use in place of this?

while i have the tanks out, i would like to replace this one, and add another one to the other tank and use a toggle switch to view either tank's level.

i dont have time for mailorder as the tanks should be going back in today (pending a call from the repair shop)

Rex has some killer inductive pick ups (no moving parts) If I ever get some spare $ I'm going to own a couple.

Call Socal speed shop, we used to use a universal sending unit in the street rods all the time. They have ajustments for depth and so on.

When you do get one , make sure it is for the same ohm's as the one you took out or it will never read right!!!!! I see people do it all the time!!!

I used the Electronic ones made by Hardin, but the only place that I know of that has them is JBP.  
However, they are the shiznit the guage does not bounce around.

Summit's right there in town too, aren't they? Dunno if they'd have anything you could use or not, or even if they have a retail store there, but would be worth a phone call.
