I am using the stock RX7 swinging arm/float on the end type fuel sender in my tank at the moment as i dropped the whole RX7 Pump assembly in the top
of my stylus tank. The arm is obviously designed for a bigger tank and doesnt clear my baffles very well. I would also like to put foam in the tank
which will stop it working completely.
Is there a type of sender that works like a kettle has down the side, with a vertical tube and a float in it so i can just drop in the tank and it
wont foul on baffles or foam?

Dip tube sensor is what I used,about 12" long.Its about 1/4" dia.Think its work on capacitor basis.Got it from ETB Instruments
Tek tanks sell fuel senders suitable for your application, you can select the length and resistance profile to suit tank and gauge.

Some versions of VW camper senders are also of the same design, if you can get one.

many thanks for that, thats what i need,
I have a spare tek tanks sender, do you know what resistance range you need and also empty resistance as it might be the wrong way round.
It was bought for a project but worked the wrong way for our application.

i have one of these:

it says : Fuel gauge
Display in 10 levels (one level means 10% filled)
Fuel resistance setting
100 ohm - · 510 ohm
In the instructions it says you can choose from the yamaha setting of 100 or the honda setting of 510. doesnt mean a lot too me.
what do you think?
