I found alot of info all along these forums for this subject. This is very easy to do. The location of my sensor was on top of the rear wheel axle, on the pumkin. Geting the old one out was tricky, it was sorta frozen to the metal. When I pulled mine out a piece was still stuck to the side, which I had to get a bent needle nose pair of pliers and get it. after that it took about 3 minutes to put the new one in, screw back the connecting plate and it was done...Good luck.

[sm=signs006.gif] ... that's the Rear Wheel Speed Sensor ... I believe the sending unit for the gas gauge is in the tank ... part of the pump assembly.

For the fuel sensor???? I think you are thinking of the speed sensor.
