Hi!

I am new to this forum, but I have been a watcher for years..

Had found very useful information here.

I just bought a Dorman fuel tank sending unit (692-155)
But there were no nuts for the two wire connectors.

I live in Sweden (Europe) and we use metric for everything which can be a pain in the as working on older american trucks and cars.

So I need to know which thread for the nuts I need to get.

Thanks in advance for any kind of help..

 

Welcome to FTE

Where the fuel tank located that you bought the sending unit for?

 

Yes it was. I bought a universal fuel sending unit first but the ohm reading is way off.
I might could use the old nuts, but I feel like getting new ones...

Thanks for the reply

 

You haven't answered my question...where the fuel tank is located that you bought the sending unit for.

There are two different types of sending units for these trucks.

 

It is located centre behind the rear axle..

 

Here's a pic of an aft axle fuel tank and related parts.

There is no nut on the sending unit (9275), what it has is a threaded stud that the wire plugs onto.

 

For clarification the wire snaps on like a spark plug wire. I am in usa michigan but remember to my surprise when I saw an old ford pull into a gas station near Gothenburg when I was on a business trip.

 

Nice..

I have redone all the wiring on my truck and I put ring terminals on there.
So I am still looking for the right nuts so I can attach my cables..

Is there anywhere I can get that information?

 

If it is not metric, it would be an english #8 #10 or #12,

Not sure what you can buy that is made in USA, but these nuts would be about usd .o2 ea. how about ignition coils or relays made in USA. Maybe they would have the nuts.
