It's a rectangular opening with screws.

The Mess Hall / 94 YJ top of fuel tank picture

Does anyone have a photo of the top of a 94 YJ for fuel injected 2.5L engine 19 gal fuel tank?  I do not remember if it had the rings or the rectangular opening with screws.  Need to purchase a NEW sending unit.

Would of thought he would of mentioned the extra weight of the EV system.
But that turbo 4 looks awesome, can you get that in a 2 door now?
IIRC it weighs aboiut 500lbs more so about as  much as a Gladiator.

The Mopar one fixed the issue. Now the gauge reads correctly.
The only difference I could see is the Mopar one has thread sealer on the threads. So it gets tight faster, so I didn't have to run the sensor all the way in. It sticks up about a 1/4 inch more.

For what its worth my current jeeps have the following setups

1. 2007 Rubicon with stock drive train aside from 4.88 gears and 35s: 4.46 (first gear), 4:1 (low), 4.88(gear) = 87.06 even with the v6 i find myself wishing i had a lower low gear when I did the Rubicon last year. Though I still say the 2.5 4banger has more will to live at low rpm than the 3.8l

2. cj2a proto jeep: 4.3l v6, SM465 (6.55 1st, 3.58 2nd), dana 18 with terraflex 3.15:1 low range kit, 5.13 gears, and 35s. results 105.8 in 1st, 57.85 2nd. I find myself using 2nd gear for most trails in this rig but the low 1st gear is great for playing in the rocks as you can practically momentarily come to a stop without stalling (backlash starts adding up). Obviously with the 4 cylinder it would be nice to be a bit lower if you are crawling in the big rocks / ledges

I’ve found a big difference between the average auto store sending unit,
and a factory one.
The average one I bought was too long and actually got crushed by installing it.
Like Jeffy said, the Mopar ones are probably 3rd party, but it is at least made to their spec.

This is the second one I bought from Autozone. When I pulled the one out to replace, I noticed that it was really dented as if something happened to it. It did not look like the brand new one. Maybe it's to long??
I'll get one a Mopar one and see what's up.

Hmm, I haven't had to change mine.  With the electric fan mine hovers just below 210.  Might try a different brand.  I'm sure they're all made pretty cheaply and aren't very accurate.  Maybe Autometer or Bosch has one?  I'm sure the mopar one is a third party as well.

I swapped out the temperature sending unit and now the gauge moves, but it's reading about 215 with a 195 T-stat.

It's a Autozone brand sending unit.
Maybe I'll see if the dealer has one?
