Hi all, I'm struggling with this sender unit? My fuel gauge is still not working, I have pulled carpet back and removed plate, I can see petrol pipes going out of tank and a connection block or connector? What am I looking for? The connector looks very dirty? As does everything on top of tank? I will be having another look tomorrow after work. All advice appreciated! I'm not vert techie but willing to learn? I have no idea of what tools I need for maintaining our bongo? :( #-o

Is is actually petrol or diesel? This is from a V6 which is different to diesel. The petrol fuel senders do not suffer the same earth probs as the diesel ones.

Hi all, I've sorted the fuel gauge :roll: after all that I disconnected the cable and sprayed some wd40 into the connectors and put it back together and it has been working since? :D thanks for advice
