Are Fuel Sender Floats Available to Purchase?
Looks like our '92 Jeep Cherokee XJ needs a new fuel sender float (gas gauge only rises to about 1/3 tank when it's filled). Are these sold anywhere? Thank you.

I have this model in storage I purchased ten years, but my mechanic states the '92 version is smaller. I'm going to ask him to try to adapt the one I have. We will soon see if that works out or not.

Mechanic did not want to use the white plastic float so he adapted the similar brass float. Then filled the tank with 19.9 gallons (according to owner's manual, fuel tank capacity is 20.2 gallons). Gauge rose to the full mark. Seems to be fixed for now. Shaking the black float that failed, we could feel it part way filled with gasoline although I could see no obvious holes or cracks.
