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.

      MSU 500 Fuel Pump Ground
      By Kierobi
      Have a MSU 500 that we got from my wife's uncle a while back. We've had it running and hauling around the property but it stopped a few months ago after what I thought was running out of gas and I'm just getting to looking into it. 
      Had fuel to the injector but nothing coming out the injector so swapped with new injector and installed inline filter in the supply hose from fuel pump. Tried again and still nothing but noticed this time that I can't hear the fuel pump priming. 
      Pulled off the electrical connection and I'm getting 12V to the fuel pump but it won't run. Put it on a test bench and got it to run so put test lamp between +ve and -ve terminals on the connector and nothing. Checked against the passenger seat securing post and get a light. 
      Tried chasing the wire back and think that the ground is through the ECU but not 100% sure. Can someone confirm for me? And if it is through the ECU, is the ECU just grounded against the frame or is it wired through to the battery?
      Thanks in advance and hope this all make sense!

      Massimo 400S Buck UTV Starter solenoid replacement
      By AaronD1982
      I recently purchased a 2019 or 2020 (no manual) Massimo 400S Buck Series UTV.  It ran fine for a couple days but the low battery light was flashing while it drove.  It then died in the field one day and I was able to jump the battery and get it rolling enough to get back to the barn.  It started both times I turned the key for a couple days after and when driven died 10 minutes later in the driveway.  Even after jumping it had no juice, but with the key out of the ignition it kept trying to start, a quick look on the Google machine and it suggested starter solenoid or ignition switch was the culprit.  Fair enough, let's just order a replacement solenoid, right?  No way Jose....the pin connector on the UTV is a 2-pin white plastic connector and the part received is a 4 pin.  How do I swap that and make it work?  Can I even?  Where do I find correct parts in the future?

      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.

      Fuel injector replacement Massimo 500
      By Eman85
      Pulled fuel injector to see if I could clean it or if it's stuck open. Had a slide on clip that was really tough to get off. Don't see how the clip is supposed to lock into the plastic part that the injector slides into. Any videos or pics of injector replacement?
