Hello All
some good info in the FAQ.
one thing i did not read in the FAQ = you can have a problem with the windings that the float rides on where the rods that have the wire around are corroded inside the plastic shield and no contunity will be measured because of this.
i managed to repair/build one good sender from two 95 940 junkyard units and the one in my 94 940.
i almost gave up but kept pushing forward. the best way to learn is just do it.
the 95 940 sender is a little different than the 94 940 but can be modified as the 94 has the two pump system and the 95 has one.
included are a couple pics, the 2nd pic is the usual suspect where it just plain wears out, this is the small metal part that rides up and down with the float that contacts the rods with the wires spun around them.
it was alot of time but it appears i was victorious.
take a look
Mike
