Question

the metro is a 4 door 1100 gsi,n reg,for sum reason the petrol sender units packed in,can any one help plz.

Answer 1

Its in the top of the petrol tank & very easy to replace.

Answer 2

It's in the petrol tank. Don't even think about going in where you put the petrol pump. you won't get it that way.

Google the mini owners club and post on their forum. You will e inundated with people telling you how to do it. Any livivng local will offer to help you do it.

Answer 3

The petrol sender unit is inside the petrol tank attached to a float. there maybe small bolts in a circle under your tank which you undo to remove the sender unit. You Must empty the petrol from the tank before trying to remove it, When you replace it, use a new gasget.

Answer 4

It's in the top of the tank, not bad to replace as long as the tank fixings aren't rotten.

Answer 5

If you decide to go ahead 1st you must remove the rear section of the exhaust system to enable you to drop the tank.

Once tank is lowered then you can disconnect the pipes & wire and then you can remove the sender unit from the top of the tank.

Do NOT smoke whilst performing this operation!
