Unfortunately, if you can't find a Comanche to pull a sending unit from, then you'll probably be out of luck. Cherokee FSU's don't play nice with our trucks (Read: Don't fit at all without custom modding of the unit itself). If you DO find another Comanche though, I believe you can use the FSU from either a 4.0 or a 2.5; but there might be some issue with it being a different Also, see if you can determine what size tank you pull it from. I'd also give these threads a look over as well. Some helpful info inside. :cheers: http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=34742&p=341928&hilit=fuel+sending+unit#p341928 http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=34150&p=336601&hilit=fuel+sending+unit#p336601 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88whitemanche Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 I've read over the write ups and it's great info but mainly to custommake something for the floater.....but it does suck that I can't do anything for my truck I finally gottenbit going and now another issue with the fuel gauge when is the Comanche curse is going to STOOOOP! I'd love to have this truck on the road and not worry about anything until anything breaks down....oh well I loved it since I've gotten it just going to keep fighting until I get it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88whitemanche Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Do you guys think I could do a sucessful swap of the.fuel tanks? And could you guys lead me to the write up so I can take considerations on swaaping a new tank...it kind of sucks to drive around miami and not know how much fuel I have in my gas tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
