Has anyone tried the new made in Canada Spectra fuel tank sending units? I would like to know if they work correctly. I have had zero luck with all other reproduction sending units.

Interesting. I'd love an update if you could. I've tried 3 different sending units, all purchased from separate sellers, and all 3 haven't worked right.

There is usually a ground strap from the fuel nipple on the sender to the steel fuel line that bridges the connection rubber hose.

Anybody know how to troubleshoot the gauge and wiring? My womans car does have a working system. I'd like to narrow down the problem before I start buying parts.

Mopars are easy.First make sure the sender is grounden the strap Ma used usually is bad.Then remove the sender wire at the sender.Ground I prefer the battery and turn on the key.Gauge should go to full.Dont leave it on long just enough to see the movement toward full.If it moves and groound is good its probally the float.They get full of gas and stay down.Pull the sender and Ohm movement If good its the float that Ford has a good replacement for vans.Rocky
