Managed to get it the 4 miles back home. God knows how

Every 200 miles!

The fuel gauge on my '96 940 2.3LPT is also playing up so I fill up every 300 miles at the moment (.....and I do a lot of start/stop/30mph town driving). Anyway I have asked for price for a new sender unit at MRG recently and the part could not be found on the system! I am keeping the car, its the most reliable car I have ever owned and an getting all of it's little niggles finally sorted out. With this in mind does anyone know where I can get a new genuine Volvo sender unit please?

Thanks

Ben
