After almost 34 years, the fuel sending unit in my '90 SN needs to be replaced. The tank itself is 11" deep, so I think a 10" sending unit is recommended. Which type and brand do you guys prefer? Have seen some that have a float arm that swivels - and others that have a straight vertical post with a float around it. The top of the existing unit has three wires that connect to it. Will the fuel tank need to be removed? Thanks for any suggestions and advice. ------------- 1990 Ski Nautique (original owner) PCM 351W with D.U.I. |

I prefer the reed style vs. the swing arm type. http://www.moellermarine.com/moeller-marine/fuel-accessories/reed-switch-fuel-sending-unit-11-inch-tank-depth-035762-10/" rel="nofollow - http://www.moellermarine.com/moeller-marine/fuel-accessories/reed-switch-fuel-sending-unit-11-inch-tank-depth-035762-10/ JQ ------------- Current 2003 Ski Nautique 206 Limited Previous 2001 Ski Nautique Open Bow 1994 Ski Nautique Open Bow Aqua skiing, ergo sum |

Many thanks, guys. Will probably go with a reed style sending unit and put it on the list of winter projects. Getting that tank out is going to be a challenge... ------------- 1990 Ski Nautique (original owner) PCM 351W with D.U.I. |
