Description

Fuel Level Sending UnitWe used to carry both the early model (251 91 051E) and late model (251 919 051K) fuel sending gauges. After testing them out on our vans, we discovered that you can use the late model unit for early model vans! We now sell just the 251 919 051K for all years of Vanagons we love the results we get with them, and we think you will too. Note: If you are dropping your fuel tank to re seal the vapor control system, it is a good time to replace the sending

We used to carry both the early model (251-91-051E) and late model (251-919-051K) fuel sending gauges. After testing them out on our vans, we discovered that you can use the late model unit for early model vans! We now sell just the 251-919-051K for all years of Vanagons -- we love the results we get with them, and we think you will too.

Note: If you are dropping your fuel tank to re-seal the vapor control system, it is a good time to replace the sending unit. If you don't and it goes bad, you will be dropping the fuel tank again to replace this sending unit. A wise man once said, "There is always time to do it right the second time around." Do it right the first time around! Do it right, cry once!

Application note: This part does not fit 4WD Syncro. You can find that sending unit here.

Installation Tips

IMPORTANT: The casting of the plastic "ramps" that lock this sender into place on the tank are not as exact as the OE part. You might need to shave the ramps down a bit (a razor blade works well) to prevent the tank from digging in and gouging the ramps (see photo above). During installation, if you find that the sender stops rotating smoothly into place, stop and remove it. Inspect the ramps and trim away any areas where the plastic is gouged. Additionally, we strongly recommend lubing the O-ring with white lithium grease. You must compress the O-ring tightly to clock the sending unit into the correct position.

Great trial set. Just be careful throwing the orange one!
Style: Assorted Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
Blue isn't that easy to see in the yard White charges with bright light/UV and is truly a game changer for night-time fetch. Both dogs clearly favor it. Orange is easy to see in the grass at day They're 3 different weights as well, so double trial. I prefer medium for my big dogs, though light performs well too The orange is HEAVY and unyielding. Do NOT throw it with a ball thrower. It could damage your house or knock your dog out. Seems tough though.

Fun, Durable Balls for smaller heavy chewers
Color: Four colors, Size: 5cm (ball only)
Perfect size and strength for my small dog that is a heavy chewer! She hasn’t been able to destroy and chew up this one like she has with every other toy! Definitely chew resistant.

Great quality
Color: Four colors, Size: 5cm (ball only)
I was very surprised that these are as good as the chuck it balls. I have a super chewer and he’s tears balls up except for chuck its and he can’t tear these up.
