    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

1982 GS850GZ fuel sender unit

Forum Newbie
Would anyone know where I could source a fuel sender unit for 1982 GS850GZ, I’ve searched the planet for a new unit but to no avail, if one is not available is there one that can be retro fitted? Thanks for any help and advice Kind Regards Larry
 
New examples of that device have probably not been available for 20-25 years. Your best bet would be to go to a breaker.

You don't have to find the EXACT year and model. I know that an '83 will fit exactly, but if you look up the part number and enter that into a cross-reference chart, it might come up with the other models that use it.
 
A long time ago there was a thread here at GSR about fixing the fuel sending units. It may be worth trying to find it up in the search section.
 
Member Admiral Beez had a thread where he sent off for a rebuilt / as new sender. As far as I recall, it was over $100 but for that you get another 40 years service out of it.
