Who has the best price on a fuek tank sending unit ?

Got the brake line all complete and the FASS pump is all done but now the fuel gauge reads full all the time. From searching all the fourms it appears the fuel sending unit is bad. Who has the best price locally? I fond one on Ebay from a dealer who wants $60 shipped.

Did you have to put a draw straw in the tank for the FASS? If so is there a chance that the float is sticking on the straw causing it to read full? Might be worth a look before buying that part.

I did not do the draw straw, I'm using the FASS HPFP. Looks like Ebay will be the way to go.

check the sending unit with a multimeter is might be a wire that broke while installing the fass.

Hey Mark is that your camper down at Custom Coach? I know the owner Bob, he's a B4W member and a good guy.
