Stainless Fuel Sending Unit with Low Level Sensor | 3/8" Outlet | 1967-68 Mercury Cougar

Restore accurate fuel-level readings and proper low-fuel warning operation on your 1967-1968 Mercury Cougar with this stainless fuel sending unit featuring an integrated low-level sensor. Designed as a direct-fit replacement inside the fuel tank, this unit includes a 3/8 inch fuel outlet and the additional sensor required by Cougars equipped with a compatible factory-style low-fuel warning system.

Important: This sending unit is intended for 1967-1968 Mercury Cougars equipped with a compatible factory-style low-fuel warning system or a complete conversion using the correct warning-light panel, wiring, low-fuel relay, and related electrical components. The integrated low-level sensor does not create a working warning light by itself. Cougars equipped only with a standard fuel gauge normally use a sending unit without the low-fuel sensor.

• 1967-1968 Cougar Fitment: Designed for compatible 1967-1968 Mercury Cougar fuel tank sending unit applications.
  
  
• For Low-Fuel Warning Applications: Intended for Cougars equipped with a compatible factory-style warning-light system that includes a LOW FUEL indicator.
  
  
• Integrated Low-Level Sensor: Provides the tank-side signal used by the low-fuel warning circuit when the fuel reaches the system’s activation level.
  
  
• Operates the Standard Fuel Gauge: Measures the amount of fuel in the tank and sends the corresponding signal to the dashboard fuel gauge.
  
  
• Requires Matching Warning-System Components: Low-fuel warning operation requires the correct indicator panel, wiring, low-fuel relay, and related electrical connections to already be installed and functioning.
  
  
• Not Required for Standard Applications: A Cougar with only a conventional fuel gauge and no LOW FUEL warning circuit normally uses a sender without the additional sensor.
  
  
• 3/8 Inch Fuel Outlet: Provides the fuel supply connection for compatible fuel-system configurations.
  
  
• Direct-Fit In-Tank Installation: Mounts in the factory-style sending unit location inside the fuel tank.
  
  
• Stainless Steel Construction: Offers a durable replacement for a worn, corroded, leaking, damaged, or inaccurate sending unit.
  
  

This stainless fuel sending unit performs two separate functions in a properly equipped 1967-1968 Mercury Cougar. It operates the standard dashboard fuel gauge by measuring the amount of fuel in the tank, and its additional low-level sensor supplies the signal used by the compatible LOW FUEL warning circuit.

When the fuel reaches the sensor’s activation level, the sender works with the Cougar’s existing warning-light panel, wiring, low-fuel relay, and related electrical components to illuminate the LOW FUEL indicator. Because the sender is only one part of the system, installing it in a vehicle without the supporting warning-system components will not create a functioning low-fuel warning.

This unit is the appropriate style to consider when replacing a failed sender in a Cougar originally equipped with a compatible low-fuel warning system, restoring a factory-style warning-light system, or completing a properly configured conversion. For a vehicle equipped only with the standard dashboard fuel gauge, select the appropriate sending unit without the low-level sensor.

Built from stainless steel and designed to mount inside the fuel tank, this direct-fit replacement is suitable for fuel tank service, inaccurate gauge diagnosis, low-fuel warning repair, electrical restoration, or a complete classic Cougar fuel-system refresh. Before ordering, verify the vehicle’s original equipment and confirm that the complete low-fuel warning circuit is present and compatible.

Choose this sending unit for a 1967-1968 Mercury Cougar equipped with a compatible LOW FUEL warning system. For a standard Cougar without the warning indicator and supporting electrical components, use a conventional sending unit without the low-level sensor.
