Thanks again for the information on using SW senders in the ER tanks. Nice to have a lower cost option than the CiES senders to be able to read full to empty, especially with the additional fuel available.
My preference is still the CiES senders with all of the electronics outside of the fuel tank, higher MTBF and greater accuracy. All of that does come with a very steep price, though.

Richard,
Did the components used to modify the inboard sensor come in a kit? It appears that way from the pictures. Any further details on the parts source and process?

Hi Todd,
This is the bulkhead fitting I used.
Install check out the pics. Drill hole. Bolt on. Proseal.
Just make sure you give yourself enough room to make a nice seal on the sender plate to the tank rib.
