Modular Fuel Sender Assembly

Modular Fuel Sender Assembly:

The modular fuel sender assembly is attached to the top of the fuel tank, and extends from the top of the fuel tank to the bottom.

The modular fuel sender assembly consists of the following major components:
^ The fuel sender cover assembly
^ The fuel pipes above the cover
^ The fuel pump
^ The fuel pump strainer
^ The fuel pump reservoir
^ The external fuel sender strainer
^ The fuel level sensor assembly
^ The fuel tank pressure sensor

The fuel level sensor assembly consists of the float, the wire float arm, and the rheostat. The fuel level is determined by the position of the float and the float arm, which operate the rheostat. As the float position changes, the amount of current passing through the rheostat varies, thus changing the gauge reading on the instrument panel.

The modular fuel sender assembly mounts to the opening of the plastic fuel tank. The design provides:
^ Optimum fuel level in the integral fuel reservoir during all fuel tank levels and driving conditions.
^ Improved accuracy of the tank fuel level measuring.
^ Improved coarse straining and added pump inlet filtering.
^ More extensive internal fuel pump isolation for noiseless operation.
