4.2 Mounting the Sending Unit

  • Locate the existing fuel sender or the designated mounting area on your fuel tank.
  • Mọ dada iṣagbesori daradara.
  • Place the provided gasket onto the mounting flange of the sending unit.
  • Insert the sending unit into the tank opening, ensuring the float mechanism moves freely without obstruction.
  • Align the SAE 5-hole pattern and secure the unit using the provided mounting screws. Tighten screws evenly to create a watertight seal.

5. Isẹ

Once installed and wired, the fuel sending unit will transmit the fuel level to your compatible 240-33ohm fuel gauge. The gauge will display the current fuel level (Empty to Full).

5.1 Fuel Gauge Compatibility and Setting

This sending unit outputs a signal of 240 ohms when empty and 33 ohms when full. For accurate readings, your fuel gauge must be set to match this 240-33ohm standard. Refer to your fuel gauge's manual for specific instructions on how to adjust its settings.
