4.2L with 15Gal. tank.
Yea, these things basically no longer exist aftermarket. Dealer, renova, napa, carquest and several other shops I called have no listing. Awesome.
Mine has the feed/return tubes cracking away from the unit, and the seal-all isn't going to last forever lol.
Anyone have a sending unit they can sell me?
Thanks!

my feed tube cracked off a couple of times on mine. I cleaned it all up, blew out the gas with the sender out, and soldered it back together with a torch and plumber's solder.
it's cheap, and if the tank is already out, will only take a few minutes.

Napa sells repair tubing pieces that are necked down to fit inside the old tubing going through the plate. Just do what dan did, clean it up, and solder them in.

I've had them fixed before at Stan the Rad Man if you don't want to do it yourself.

Thanks guys! I never really considered that you could repair them yourself. I repaired everything else on the YJ so why not. I can always get it rebuilt as well if it looks too bad to tackle myself.
