Overview

Fuel Quantity Transmitters. More accurate and lasts longer!
McFarlane fuel quantity transmitters are a direct replacements for originally installed Stewart Warner type fuel quantity transmitters.

These transmitters are engineered to be compatible with the original fuel quantity gauge and wiring which uses time proven technology and reliability.

Each transmitter is manufactured using the new Stewart Warner "thick film ceramic" resistor technology. The benefits are longer life and increased accuracy. All components are thoroughly tested to ensure reliable operation.

•Save hundreds of dollars!
•Stewart Warner direct replacement
•No modifications required

NOTE: Does NOT include screw/seal assembly or gasket (see accessories to order seperatly).

*** Installation Warning ***

Do not replace the Rochester fuel quantity transmitter with the Stewart Warner transmitters. The electrical function is not compatible. Stewart Warner transmitters must be used to replace Stewart Warner transmitters only. Replacing the Rochester transmitter with the Stewart Warner transmitter will result in erroneous fuel quantity indications.

Some Cessna and Piper aircraft have been modified with a Service Kit to use the Rochester fuel quantity indicating system. This modification required changing the fuel quantity gauge, transmitter, and other electrical components. Do not use the McFarlane (Stewart Warner) transmitters as a replacement for these aircraft.

Perfect replacement for my old Cherokee Six (PA32-260). For $425 bucks, you would have thought they would include the gasket, but nope. )

Q: I have a generic fuel sending unit. I want a Viton rubber gasket for it. I see that MC462-021 and MC461-931 are both of that type of rubber. However the dimensions are not given any where to compare these to. Can you give me the outside, inside and bolt ring diameters so that I can determine if they will work?

Part # 05-04872 (GASKET MC462-021): O/D= 2 5/8", I/D= 1 5/8", and Bolt Ring= 3/16".
Part # 05-04871 (GASKET MC461-931): O/D= 5 1/2", I/D= 1 7/16, and Bolt Ring= 1/8".

Q: What is the resistance range from empty to full?

Approx 32 ohms when full and 250 ohms when empty.

Q: Which gasket and screw seals are needed for this transmitter?

screw/seals: MC1802. Gaskets are based off the aircraft serial: MC462-021 or MC462-931
