There are no original unused Fuel Sending Units available. At delorean.com they sell a new metal one to replace the original plastic one but some people have complained over many years that the new metal one hits the gas tank bottom and doesn’t fit quite right. The gas tank is plastic and is some what flexible thus making the distance from bottom to top slightly different in some cases.
Other people have had the fine wires inside the original Fuel Sending Unit break and some one like John Hervey (http://specialtauto.com) offers to fix it.
My original still works but I’m some what annoyed when the gas tank is low the fuel sloshes around and gas gage goes down to 0 and back up to 1/4 and back to 0 and back up to 1/4.
I have to wonder with this new combined unit will the gas gage still go up and down and up and down when the gas is low in the tank?
