oldodge41 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 After my rewire my gas gauge still did not work. Tonight I investigated and found this. It was all corroded and black looking. When I touched it, it fell apart. It is the resistor wire that the wiper in the sending unit rides on. The other picture is the sender complete. Quote
TodFitch Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 Check out part P233 at http://www.robertsmotorparts.com/car_parts.asp?Action=search&c=Cars+%2D+Electrical+%26+Related+Parts Has one part number for '37-48 car sending units so that might not be a good listing as the pre-war cars typically had the 5 screw SAE mounting flange like yours and the later cars had, I think, a flange with no holes and a lock ring. Could be wrong about the later cars.... Quote
oldodge41 Posted April 17, 2012 Author Report Posted April 17, 2012 Thanks for the link. I just saw Andy Bernbaum lists them too. Quote
Young Ed Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 My 48 sender looked like this when it came out. Dad and I repaired this one but I have a roberts unit for my truck and it looks the same. Quote
