Description:
A new universal 5 bolt sending unit for use with VDO gauges. The OHM rating of this sending unit is 10 OHM - 180 OHM (10 OHM is empty and 180 OHM is full). This sending unit will not work with stock OEM gauges or with other brands of gauges such as Autometer, Stewart Warner, Classic, or Omega.
This sending unit mounts with five mouning screws and it works on fuel tanks from 6-24 inches deep by cutting to length using the instructions provided. Also included are the five specal O-ring bolts and mounting gasket.
Since fuel tank senders are only read resistance to ground, they work on all 6-24 volt systems, positive or negative ground. They do not have a fuel pickup tube built into them, as some original senders may. This sending unit is made with a high quality ceramic board rheostat.
Just as with anything else, there are always exceptions.****Please check double check your ohm rating before ordering.**** The resistance of your fuel sender should match that of your gauge.

- Ford up to 1986 - 73-10 Ohms
