Angry Fuel Sending unit

Looks like I need a new fuel sending unit for the '92. The gauge used to jump to full when you floored the car. I joked with my sons that I was "refilling the tank" Now the guage is stuck on Reserve. Are these repairable or where have you purchased them?
Thanks! Ross

They are NA good luck finding a new one. I do know people that use parts of a base unit to repair them.

Using a new one for parts sounds like a good solution. They seem to be very available. Thanks!

I have repaired two of them. Both were loss of continuity of solder joint or rivet joint. No parts required. Just testing and solder. PM me.

They ARE repairable. I had mine rebuilt recently by Tristar Radiator (they also specialize in all years of sending units). ...Dan & Samantha O'Hora. Very nice people to do business with.
