I replaced a similar unit like your old unit with the Moeller reed switch style 
on my C&C 41 ( 1986 model), and am very happy with. I am particularly pleased 
with the lack of moving parts, immersed in the fuel, and the sealed reed switch 
design. No need to calibrate, if the  tank is reasonably rectangular, if you 
know the depth, and  Moeller has a depth unit to match.

As I recall, the screw holes for the Moeller also matched the pattern for the 
old model.

33-240 ohms is a USA standard for engine gauges. Oil pressure, temperature, 
fuel level, etc. will all use 33-240 ohm senders.

Hi,

 

Does anyone recognize the fuel sender in the photo at the link below?   This is 
the sender which was in the fuel tank on my 38LF.  I don't think it is the 
original as it appears the tank has previously been replaced.   I have the fuel 
tank at home all cleaned out and nicely painted(no smiley yet).  I don't have a 
decent photo of the fuel gauge(it may be original), and I am hoping on 
purchasing a new sender before going down to the boat.   I am thinking about 
replacing the old unit with a Moeller reed switch (MOE 03576510 15in tank 
depth) which comes calibrated to 33-240 Ohms(is this a standard?).   I tried 
measuring the resistance of the old unit but it is toast.  

 

Any input on the type of old sender or on the reliability of the new reed 
switch sender is greatly welcomed.
