Fuel Sending Units
« 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



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.

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

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.
