Title: Fuel Tank Sender Unit Post by: murramor on June 22, 2016, 02:41:30 pm My fuel tank sender unit and associated fuel pipes is so rusted that it is totally unusable. Simon says that there is no chance of finding even a secondhand one. Does anyone have a serviceable one that they would be prepared to part with and send to Australia?
Another thought. Is the part in any way interchangeable with a Bagheera one? regards Ron Murrell Sydney Title: Re: Fuel Tank Sender Unit Post by: northmurena on June 24, 2016, 02:14:18 pm Hi Ron,

What on earth do you put in your petrol tanks in Australia ? That's just crazy.. My first thought was it might could be repaired, and then I saw the photo.. I hope you find a good replacement!

The car itself was very rusty in the chassis as it had obviously had a hard time in England. It would almost certainly be a write-off in Europe but I have almost finished all the rust repairs.
I don't know whether the rusted sender started in England or here in Australia where the car has been unused for 15 years. The petrol in the tank had turned into a thick black goo over the years. regards Ron |
