Hello all
Did a quick search and didn't find my answer.
Does any one have the ohm reading for the fuel tank sender on a 1974 T4?
Empty and full numbers.
Thank you in advance _________________ Gary

This may not help directly.....but the 1974 cars had a different tank than the earlier 1973 and down. They had a lot of different things.
The fuel sending unit is the later style similar to that used on super beetle, bus.....a wide range of cars. It has the arm with a cylindrical plastic float on the end instead of the vertical cylinder/tube.
And......the clock and fuel gauge were new as well. Quartz clock and a fuel gauge to match the sending unit.
And......the clock unit with fuel gauge is the same part number used on the last few years of the Karmann Ghia up until 1974. Actually its a 411 part,number that got used in the ghia.
So......there mat be more information around for a 1974 ghia so you might check for that. I will check my books later today.

Did you get an ohm reading by chance?
