Replacement fuel gauge?

[Nicholas R]

This type of fuel sender can be rebuilt to if necessary. I did this recently on a different car that uses the same style. I believe it was also a 0-90ohm resistance gauge, which after doing the math led to 40gage, ~60ohm/ft wire. You'd want to double check the wire length before deciding on a gage size but I imagine it would be close.

This fuel sender would have been around $100 bucks to replace, and I think the current DeLorean sender is a similar cost (probably more).

This spool of nichrome wire was $5 (w/free shipping on ebay), and it took maybe an hour or so to remove, disassemble, solder, reassemble, and reinstall.
