Unfortunatly there pretty darn hard to come by, and if you do find one youll have to pay a fair amount of money for it.
What's wrong with yours as mine broke end of last year and I managed to fix it so there may be hope for yours

Hi David,
If you have a non working sender unit it may be possible to refurbish it yourself. There's a thread on this forum somewhere. Someone on here also found a place in the USA that can refurbish them. Search for fuel sender and you will find the threads with all the details.
They do come up for sale fairly regularly, but as ThatGuy says, they tend to be pricey.

Andrew.

Thanks for your replies guys, i do intend to get unit checked for possible repair but would like to source replacement before...hoping to deal with vp-reynolds as already had a few parts off him recently...as always this site has been a great help.

Try Caprigear for your requirements. The man's got a fair amount of capri spares. Including fuel senders. :goodluck:
