For a '74 412 is there a gas sending unit that can be used from a different VW like a Beetle or does it have to be a Type 4 unit?

Not sure. The 74 unit was unique to these cars in that it is a float and arm type...as compared to the float and cylinder style (like type 3) like the earlier ones.

I would think there would be more than can be used in teh 1974's than in earlier. Can you post a part #? Ray

So far I can only find 411 919 049, but I think it's for a 73 and earlier and I need 74. I need the twist on type with the float arm.

1973 super beetle uses the same flange as the 412, but uses 2 different float arms. might be able to modify one to work though. and of course, the seal works too.

Thanks I'll get hold of one of those and see how it goes.
