Default need a fuel guage sending unit

I have a 90 944 S2 Cab and I have a fuel leak at the top of the tank. If you remove the inspection cover in the floor of the trunk There is are two rubber hoses that connect to metal elbows that go in the top of the tank. the unit looks like it attaches to the top of the tank with a large brown screw on ring. It looks like gas is leaking from onr of the elbows as it goes in the tank. Only leaks when tank is over 3/4 full. I am pretty sure it is the fuel sending unit. does any one have one a used one in good shape for sale and how hard is it to install? if so pleas contact me. My email is trv@vonderbrink.com

You may be able to seal the leak with a good epoxy.

PM sent. Thanks If it is the right one and works and does not leak I will buy it. Is their a gasket needed to install and do you have it? How do you want to be paid. I have included a picture of a new one that is supposed to fit. I can be reached at trv@vonderbrink.com or at 614 891 8871
