Guys. I was browsing around the internet for a replacement fuel sender unit for my 55 Century, when I came upon the summit racing unit here. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cin-sn36/overview/ Sure looks different to the thing I pulled outta my tank this afternoon. Anybody out there tried one? Seem cheap enough... Actually, the more I look at it the less I think it's gonna work. No stock connection to fuel line for starters...
You need a 55 Buick gas tank sending unit. Sending units for aftermarket gauges don't usually work on factory gauges. The sending unit must be matched to the gauge. Try a Buick old car parts house or a used unit.
hi Tommy. Yeah, got to thinking about this and you're right. This might "fit" the tank, but it's setup for an aftermarket gauge.
How about this one? Listed for a '41-54 GM http://www.leadmineproducts.com/servlet/the-723/Fuel-Level-Sending-Unit/Detail Same unit I think Tanksinc sells. http://www.tanksinc.com/index.cfm/p...ategory_id=-1/home_id=-1/mode=prod/prd130.htm
