Try Jegs or Summit Racing and replace with a good aftermarket universal unit. You will have to change the sending unit and dash gauge both. The Joyner units are crap.

Napa Auto Parts also has a replacement that is universal. I looked at one but have not ordered or replaced. Seems like it is a good unit. I believe it is a VDO unit. I actually have an extra complete stock sending unit but it is for the deeper fuel tank. I have the tank that is under the rear seat so this one is too long.

If it's one with a float on the end of a wire, You can cut and bend the wire to work in the range that you need. I used one out of a Dodge pickup that way and it worked great. Was able to use the same stock gauge.

The only thing you need to worry about are the ohms. Not sure what the stock gauge is but there is a range on the Napa one. And yes it can be adapted to fit any tank.

2523214430104282158mXeElu_th.jpgHere's the components in the sender, the switches are reed switches activated by a magnetic float. I've repaired a few of them for myself and other members. Replaced mine with a capacitive sender unit that I built and need to pull out and see why it's not working, in the mean time, I just make sure it's full at the beginning of each outing.

My capacitive gauge quit working so I went back to doing the way Joyner did sort of, instead of 4 reed switches, I used 10, now when the tank is full, the needle is on the white line, then 7/8, then 3/4 in the middle of the upper blue, then 5/8, then 1/2 on the middle white line, the 3/8, then 1/4 in the middle of the lower blue, then 1/8, the empty on the while line, the 1/2R in the middle of the red, then 0 on the bottom white line. The picture shows the old and the new.

I am going to use the old farm tractor method. Straight down filler tube, take off the cap, look inside or use a measuring stick & fill her up when she needs it.

what year?

I think I still have my original sender of 5 or 6 reed switches, Or you could build one like mine. It has 14 reed switches and 16 LEDs, the 1st & 16th are always on 2 thru 4 are red, nearly empty, 5 thru 7 are yellow, less than half, and the last 6 are green, good to go. The brass tube is in the center of the tank and sealed so the circuit board & reed switches are dry. Down side is you have 15 wires running from gauge to sender.

      2017 TW450 Kohler ECH440 runs out of fuel when running wide open.
      By Sammy
      Runs fine just putting around the yard. Get it out on the road and about a half miles it runs out of gas. Let it idle for a few minutes and it will run for another half mile and do it again. Replaced both fuel pumps and filter. Does anyone know if I can get rid of the factory fuel pump?

      Hisun Sector e1 Battery replacement: any tips?
      By didgeridoo
      Hello, All!  I've decided to replace the traction batteries in my 2018 Sector E1 with a 48V Lithium set. They may be expensive, but I figure the Discovery Dry Cell are, too. I am not looking for the max driving range, as I have never received near the brochured range to begin with, but a good mix of charge/ get work done/ charge is what I am expecting.
      I have settled on the 48V EAGL kit from bigbattery dot com. Each battery pack provides 30Ah. The kit ships with a charger, as well. The packs would be physically connected in parallel (using a busbar) to one another, maintaining the 48V voltage, but together would be able to provide the amp draw the buggy pulls when going up hill or towing a rake (rated 320 max continuous Amps). This is in comparison to the serial connection the eight 6V lead batteries. Each of the EAGL batteries looks to have its own BMS; am I correct in thinking I will have to use their included charger rather than (simply) changing the onboard charger to lithium mode? The chemistry of the pack is LiFe PO4, for what it's worth.  I haven't torn anything apart yet (to diagram), so  I am not sure how the dash will interpret the AMP draw, but the kit I am looking at includes a dash mounted charge indicator.
      If anyone has completed a similar conversion, do you have any tips? Specifically, how did you remove the original batteries, and how did you secure the new ones? I am guessing that almost any change from the stock batteries would involve at least some modifications. Any tips would be appreciated, especially things I may have failed to consider. Thanks!

      Shift cable problem, 2017 Stampede 900, need advice
      By jertex
      I bought a 2017 Stampede 900 last fall that was new, old stock with less than 5 hours on it thinking that I would be getting a relatively trouble free UTV as compared to buying a used Polaris or CanAm, or Honda, etc. It's been a little quirky, but reliable. What I thought was just a minor issue with this model, the difficulty in shifting between R, N, L, H, etc., was just a characteristic of this model is now a big problem. I had to climb two very steep trails to get to the upper meadow of our hunting property, which seemed to stress the UTV more than usual since I was carrying some lumber to work on a platform for a hunting blind, and when I went to shift into park, I felt something give and it would not shift out of low, but it did move up into high gear.  I couldn't get it to shift at all at that point and the shifter felt mushy for lack of a better word. I was able to get it down to the lodge and when I investigated, I discovered that the straight, metal tube portion of the shift cable had bent to almost 90 degrees (see pics). I'm positive that it had already had some deformation that had happened previously and it had the right amount of resistance to bend to the point where it was unusable. 
      I have two questions:
      1. I suspect that there must be some other issues that makes this UTV difficult to shift, and I'm wondering if this is a common problem and if someone could enlighten me on what could cause this to be difficult to shift?
      2. Have any of you had this happen and if so, how difficult is it to replace the shifter cable?
      Any other advice is welcome, this is the first UTV that I've ever owned, so I don't know much about working on these or maintaining them. I'm relatively capable when it comes to working on my own vehicles in general, and I'm not afraid to take things apart and get my hands dirty.
      Thanks in advance for any insight, I'll be traveling most the day so I won't get a chance to look at replies until this evening.

      Replacement Kubota 1100C Mirrors
      By Bucky4444
      Has anyone found a decent replacement for the factory mirrors on a 2020 1100C?  My 2011 1100 and 2020 1100C both have the same mirrors and Kubota hasn't made one improvement to the design during those years.  Haven't checked the newer models so maybe Kubota finally woke up. Mine are definitely in need of improvement.  .

      Utv wont start and broken fuel injection wire
      By Jeff freeman
      I have a Coleman 550.  Was having problems to start with where it would start and then shut off after a couple tries. It would take off and be good. It then got to a point where it would not start at all. I replaced the fuel injection twice the second time I replaced it I noticed a mouse or something had chewed one of the wires that connect the electrical to the fuel injector. . So two-part question first does anybody have a part number for that wire harness?  Second, any other ideas after I fix the wire harness permanently on what could keep it from starting I have gas flow up to the fuel injector.
