Is there finally an accurate fuel sending unit?

I would bet the aftermarket sending units are made in China or Taiwan. I would seek out a rebuilder for my original unit.

Mine were made in Mexico

After reading about all the problems with the aftermarket sending units I had my OE rebuilt for 150.00 3 years ago, very accurate but the “new” float they installed filled up with gas after 1 summer. I found a plastic float at Carlisle and am trying that so far so good.

Motorcycles can have the same problem. Mostly the brass floats that leak, or the O rings that leak.
OBMs, outboard motors, also bend the float adjustment part, on bumpy roads.

I feel that anyone that owns an B body or other Mopar, has been down this road. The aftermarket 100% will never really read accurate to the gauge ( even if calibrated ).... at least not the "sweep" of the gauge . As shown in the previous post, the OEM is not a straight linear resistance path, aftermarkets for the most part are. This thread was , in hope a search for an aftermarket that correctly duplicated the OEM unit.

Me persoanlly, as well as many other members are running the meter match. I think it works very well. I set it so that at E I still have approx 5 liters of gas left. From 1/2 to full it will vary a lot. When its full it will read full , but everything in between will move rapidly.

What i paid most attention to is the 1/4 to E . It is pretty accurate IMO , and honestly all that I am worried about.

I should mention, none of my original gauges work, even after spending much $$. So my volts, oil pressure, temperature and fuel, are all separate gauges. This is a problem with staying stock. Too, my gas gauge is in the back of the camper van, nearer the tank.
