Hi Neil, is this still available?

Can you confirm the fixing pattern fits the Caterham live axle tank. As photo, with the overall top diameter about 75mm?

It's difficult to measure the depth of the tank, but it looks as if 200mm will fit?

If so, I'll take it.

Regards,

Clive

Oh! Looks like a non starter as yours is 5 hole fixing, and my tank is 6. Bugger!

I had a little adaptor made from 6 to 5, 200mm fits a stock K tank.... had to change as my tank is now bigger...   

Let me see if I can find the adaptor

Hi Neil,

Just been looking online and I can only find dip tube senders with 5 hole, presumably you had the same problem.

My AIM digidash fuel gauge jumps about like crazy, with the standard sender unit. I'm hoping a tube type, will steady the reading and make it more accurate.

Would be great if you can find the adaptor.

Hi Neil,

Any luck finding the adaptor?
