BillyFryBMX Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I've heard that with a HO sending unit in my tank in a Renix jeep, my gas gauge won't read correctly. If I have the HO sending unit in my tank, can I just replace the Renix era gas gauge with one from a high output gauge cluster, or will that not work either?

Minuit Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Yeah, your gauge will read backwards. You can't (easily) swap between HO and Renix clusters due to the Renix's cable speedometer. In 91 all of the gauges went fully electric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Here's an actual useful answer: The best source for unobtainium like sending units is this forum, bar none. If you look around long enough, someone is bound to have what you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyFryBMX Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 I think I'm just gonna pull the gas gauge out of the cluster and make an aftermarket one fit in there. I'm planning on going to full aftermarket gauges eventually anyway. Thank you though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is leaking and so far no response to the wanted request in the classifieds. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just throwing this out there for others who might make the rookie mistake I did over Memorial Day weekend. I pulled my sending unit because it did not seal and would leak gas if the tank was filled. Low and behold, the wire to the rheostat was compromised (it was hanging by a thread and read inaccurately anyway). So now, finding out that none are available unless I score one from a forum member, I am driving a truck with an inoperable gas gauge. Hail to the engineer among us who can find some other sending unit that can be rigged to the fuel pump! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
64 Cheyenne Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 from what I understand, a Dakota pump/sender and tank are a doable swap into our MJs. Search is your friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
