Hi Guys can someone tell me what the model of the sender that ZAC uses

is for the VDO fuek guage.



The closest one on eguages looks to be 226-001 10 to 180ohms.



Can anyone confirm this?...My sensder is still dead from when I filled

the tank with water to find the leaks after the welded flange cracked

some 4 years ago...



Thanks



Frank

Hi, Frank.  I can't get to my paperwork, but "1 551 004 257A" is stamped on

the flange of the VDO senders I'm using on the wing tanks of my 601HD.  Hope

this helps.

Hi Frank,



My 601HD wing tanks use the VDO sender kit P/N 226 002

10 to 180 ohms as supplied by ZAC.  Empty = 10 ohms

VDO contact in the US.............

VDO North america

188 Brooke Road

Winchester, Virginia 22603

Ph:  540 665 0100



VDO specifically recommends that the fuel gauge is checked for compatibility 

with the fuel sender. The installation instructions also refer to the VDO 

Nth America catalog to check for matching.

I went one step further by setting up the sender/gauge for temporary 

operation using a 12V bench power supply, and checked the general 

calibration.

Cheers

The CH-701 illustrated assembly manual specifies 10-70 ohms for the fuel sender, confirmed by measurement when installed a few days ago.
