Fuel Level Sender

Hello,

I need to replace my fuel level sender but am not sure where to find NOS parts for the 4wd tercel. Any ideas?

I don't know of any company who sells a sender aside from maybe the dealer. If your current sender still has some continuity then you can probably get away with just cleaning the contacts and bending the rod that holds the float. I think there is a write up on this forum, but it's fairly self-explanatory.
It's a scientific fact that in a twin engine aircraft, when one engine fails there is always enough power in the remaining engine to make it all the way to the crash site.
