Default Fuel sender wanted.

Hi, has anyone got a spare fuel sender. Its for a 1992 240 Torslanda estate, with injected 1986cc engine. Mine works fine, but pipes are so corroded petrol is spraying out of pinholes. Or does anyone know of a reasonably priced supplier of these. Thanks Darren.

Sorry I don't have a spare unit but I have read on here that people have used epoxy on the sender as a bodge / get you by. Might be worth a try if you are losing petrol. Have you tried Braydons?

Best of luck

Scott

Default Sender now replaced.

Quick update, sender is now replaced & all seems to be working fine, with no leaks. Got a couple of prices for new units. Cheapest by far was FRF in Swansea, thanks to generous OC discount. In the end got a second hand one from Braydons. Still expensive, but came complete with pump, so at least I have a spare one now. Have plastered it with waxoil, so hopefully will slow corrosion down. Cheers Darren.
