Reed Switch Sending Unit, 9" - Moeller

I bought this 9" Moeller and when it came it was a 8". I contacted them and they sent me another one at no charge but we ordered a 10" expecting it to be a 9" where the other one was a inch smaller and it was a 11". So now I have 2 and neither is the size I wanted. I'm hoping I can make it work but not sure..so im unsure of how the sizing is done.

To pick the correct depth for my tank I had to remove my old sending unit and measure the length of its extension. No other information or instruction on picking the correct unit was available. When it arrived the information I couldn't find was available on the packaging. Results are a gauge that works wonderfully but doesn't read the true amount of remaining gas. I have an additional inch of clearance to the bottom of the tank which equates to about 10 gal additional beyond the reserve that would already exist with correct sending unit. For those of you in the same situation......... Measure from the top of the sending unit and not just the down rod for length. Then you can order the correct size. As it is , I should never run out of gas if I refill when empty. I will have close to a thirty mile window.

Delivered product faster than proposed. ..thanks for Jon well done!

Good product

This replacement fit with zero modification. Though 1/2 inch longer than the original that was in my Bayliner 2150, it seems to be the shortest one made these days. The warning literature says you should have on-inch clearance between the bottom end of the switch and the tank bottom. I have only 1/2 inch clearance but since there is near zero flex in my system, I am comfortable. This replacement has a stainless tube which is an improvement over the old design. I was pleased to see that the accompanying literature included the ohm readings for full empty which I confirmed before doing the install. My gage reads perfectly now. Thanks!

Part arrived quickly and easy to install

The above rating does not apply. I am reasonablly sure it would have worked OK. I had to return the switch due to a length requirement problem. The best tank depth I could obtain prior to the order for the tank depth was 8 1/2". When I received the new unit, I removed the old unit to find out the new unit was 1/2" to long. It appeared to work OK other wise. In my return request I asked if it would be possible to obtain a unit 7" in length, I did not receive a reply. I only received the return information which wroked OK. Thanks for the help. Regards, Woody
