WANTED Bx Diesel Fuel tank sender
Greetings. I'm looking for a fuel tank sender, again, for my beloved TZD. I don't know why they keep breaking down but this will be the third one I've fitted! I think I must be using corrosive diesel 'cos the wires inside keep coming loose and the guage bounces around all the time. I tried sticking them back in place but it doesn't work! I'm in desperate need of the sender unit that goes in the fuel tank to operate the fuel guage. Anyone got one? Pretty Please!

One of mine unravelled several years ago,I put it down to the veg oil/white spirit mix I was running it on.

Hmm I do wonder if the savings your oil burners make running on chip fat make is worth while as the effects it has on fuel filters, gauges etc.....

Mine started to do this about 5 years ago originally. That time i just cleaned up the contacts and that sorted it. Never used veg oil until about 2 years ago so i think its just the age of the units and them breaking down. Probably well past their design life.

Re: WANTED Bx Diesel Fuel tank sender
it does seem to afflict diesels more than petrols thats for sure.
I've replaced mine 4 times now.. Same as a C15 and were available from Citroen for not much certainly up til 2010, which is when I last replaced mine.
