Smiths instruments were commissioned to manufacture these units for ford in the 1960s.

Resistance values (In Ohms Ω) are as follows:
Empty = 237-273Ω
Full = 16-22Ω
You must check the resistance values of your gauge to ensure this sender unit is suitable, failure to do this could result in your gauge not reading accurately.
In the rare instances in which your gauge does not read correctly, we offer a multi-gauge matcher to match your gauge to the sender unit.
