Can anyone PLEASE tell me where I can purchase a replacement plastic fuel sender float for 68 Charger. Would rather replace with plastic than use brass. Sender unit is OK. Don't want to buy another unit just for plastic part.

Have been searching internet but just cannot locate. Thanks for any leads. Joe

BRASS - Ford - COAZ-9202-B. Ron
P.S. NOT plastic after all. That's what happens when ypu believe what you read on the internet.
My apologies.
Ron

Thats weird....usually everyone tosses out the plastic one and puts in a Brass float....why do you opt for the plastic one?

The plastic one last basically forever.I had a stash of them I pulled from Ford pumps when we replaced the pumps.I probally gave a dozen away over the years.The brass ones fall apart and send crud thru the system.That and most of the new ones are compatable with the alky in new gas.Rocky

I have some plastic ones if you can't find one locally.

Chrysler went to plastic floats years ago due to fuel formulation eating the solder on the brass floats and causing them to fail. At least that's what their sending unit manufacturing plant told me.

Just went to Dixie Restorations website. Just brass floats available but will call you tomorrow to inquire about your plastic floats. Thanks, Joe

Can someone post the PN for the plastic Mopar part?
I've had 2 brass ones corrode.

To help redeem myself here is the omix float:

Thanks for the posts and thanks to Dixie Restoration for selling me some of their plastic floats. Joe

So is it any different from the PNs posted above?

I asked Dixie Restorations to please give me the part # or to post it on Moparts for all interested parties to make note of. If they don't post it, I will get numbers from them and post it for future reference!

I just spoke with Dixie Restorations. They cannot find a p/n for the mopar plastic floats. The ones they sold me, they were kind enough to remove from the mopar fuel sending units they had in stock. Does anyone know if a p/n exists for the plastic floats that are being sold on the Mopar units today???

We had our sending units made by the original manufacturer to Chrysler. When we ordered them, we ordered some extra floats and filters. A couple of years after we made them, Year One went overseas and had some made. Then a few other companies started making units overseas. We couldn't compete with the cheap overseas sending units, so we quit making them.

What we have been selling is left over stock. I don't think Chrysler ever serviced the plastic float separately, so that's why we couldn't find the number. But, we could be wrong, so if someone finds it, please post. Since we had run out of floats, we pulled some from in stock units to satisfy Joe's order.

I have emailed the supplier to see if I can get more. They still make parts for the OEM, so my measly 100 count order will not get alot of immediate attention compared to a several hundred thousand count order from a OEM for whatever current part they need. If, and when, they email me back, I'll post here stating if I can get more. If anyone is interested in getting some, please let me know.

Thanks,
Randy
