Title: Beetle Fuel Sender?!
Post by: cal-look.net on May 08, 2008, 16:07:23 pm
Wonder is anyone can help.

My fuel sender is broken and I need to replace it.

My bug is a 1966 Australian import, small window etc - a bit odd.


I can't find a fuel sender that looks like this for a bug!

There is a # missing in your part #should be 9 numbers and maybe a letter after it
