Where is the best place to get a low price on a sending unit.
Auto junk and ADV want $80, but lmc only wants $40. Why? Where have yall got yours??? Thanks in advance

I have one I pulled off my 69. My gauge wasn't working so I bought a new one, but gauge still doesn't work. My gauge is probably bad. With that said, you can have my old one if you pay shipping. No guarantee it's good. I tested the old one and it seemed to be giving me intermittent readings

Got one from LMC and it worked fine.

i tested mine too. the Ohm reading seemed to jump around, it was not smooth like i thought it should be. Thanks for the offer 9teen69 but I would probbly be better off with a new one. Fix it and forget it.

That's cool. That's exactly how I tested mine and after spending $50 bucks it still doesn't work. I've got a Autometer hooked up to it now. You should try hooking up an aftermarket gauge if you can to see what is bad.
