I have a rinker 310 2008 and both gas gauges are failing. I am 90% sure it s either a bad sending unit or a stuck one. I need help figuring out how to access the sending units. Any guidance on this would be appreciated. I searched the forum but only found 3 threads and none seemed to mention the locations of the sending units. Corey

    sending units will be on the top of the gas tanks.  seems strange to be both of them at the same time.

    They are flanged to the top of the gas tank. You will see a plastic head with wires coming out. These are the senders.

    Ensure your gas tank is nowhere near full when you do this or fuel will leak into your bilge.

    Ensure you seal everything back as well with the correct materials for fuel, or it will leak into your bilge.

    I replaced mine a couple years ago.  It's all of a fifteen minute job once you access it.

    They are flanged to the top nozzle of the fuel tank. You will see two wires coming out of them.
