well got the wiring finished on the fuel sender toay and the gauge will peg full when grouned so looks like the sender is shot are these repairable? the float moves freely and the gears turn, new is too $ for now at $95

A tank sender from a M151 will work just fine in a M37, same hole pattern and depth of tank. New sender from RAPCO part (for example) is $39... They do have the rubber connector on them so if you are running an older style wire harness with the metal shell connectors you will have to change a wire end or make up a pigtail...

Mark's (RAPCO) sender listing is located at:

Or, if you prefer to order one off his M37 parts page at the same price but with a different part number (contact him and ask if it is the same part with a different number or if it has the metal connector and thus a different part number):

I tend to replace the dead senders in trucks I work on, it's a lot less time consuming for me...
