Instruction Manual

Fuel Level Sender Installation:
1. Install the fuel level sender into the fuel tank following the below instructions. The Sniper EFI 72-80
Dodge D-Series Fuel tank is 10 inches deep, which will require elimination of a part of the fuel level
sender assembly. See Figure 4 and proceed as follows.

Figure 4 – Fuel Level Sender Tank Dimensions.
2. Measure depth of the fuel tank. Locate this dimension in Column “A’’ of Table 1. Column “B” shows the
length from the underside of the sender flange to the center of the float pivot. Column “C’’ shows
distance from the center of the float pivot to the center of the float. For example, a tank 10’’ deep would
need a measurement of 5’’ from the flange to the pivot and 6.4’’ from the pivot to the float.
3. Remove two screws “d’’ and discard (Figure 5).
4. Remove two screws “e” from the plastic housing and reserve for later use.
5. Carefully remove bracket “f ’’ from the plastic housing and discard. Replace with bracket “g’’ in the
housing and loosely re-install the two screws “e’’ into housing. NOTE: 6” tanks require mounting
rheostat with float toward the outside of the mounting bracket and use of only lower ”e” screw to fit.
6. Slide housing up or down until the proper dimension from Table 1 is reached, then tighten screws
securely.
CAUTION: Do not overtighten hardware to avoid damage to the threads.
NOTE: For a better seal, use Permatex® Indian Head Gasket Shellac Compound or Aviation Form-A-
Gasket® sealant on the gasket and screws.
