Is it wort the difference?
I nned to replace the fuel sendin unit is a 71 car. BAsed on test suggested to run by others on this forum. I have found the windings on the resistor to be broken.
This part seems like something that is pretty straight forward in build and design.
But I have seen these advertised for a wide range of prices all the way up to factory NOS units for approx. 110.00
I do not see me buying the NOS , but is there any feed back on which supplier has the best for the money?
I have seen then from 45.00 to 85.00 to 110.00
Thanks
David

I paid over $100 for mine, then found a writeup from one of the guys in here. He bought a cheap one from JC Whitney and swapped the resistor over to his old unit.
damn things are pricy

That is good advice sir
I hate to spend that much $$$$$ on something that no body can see.
Much rather spend 80.00 to 100.00 on some CHROME

David,
I agree with sixfooter about buying a cheap sending unit from a parts store and swapping the resister to your unit. I've heard that this is pretty straight forward to do. You need to make sure its the right resistance, I think its 90 ohms.
Happy New Year!!!
