In tank fuel sender bad
« on: December 21, 2019, 04:52:01 PM »
Hello all,
My Grand Vista 09 fuel sender is not working. I am having trouble finding a replacement. Any ideas where to get one ?
Merry Christmas,
Jerry

How do you know the sender is bad? Is the fuel pump and the sender in the same unit?

I'm having the same issue with my 2009 grandvista250. The digital gauge is just going from empty to full and not reading how much full I have, do you think it's the sending unit?

I looked on line and it looks like it uses a 3780A-KKC4-900 that replaces a 3780A-KKC4-9000. Fuel unit assy $43.17 the GV has a manual external fuel pump. You might want to verify this number.

Not on the GV, it uses a vacuum driven external  fuel pump.
