Fuel Level Sender (Gasoline Engines Only)
On Multi Pro 5800 machines with a Kubota gasoline en-
gine, the fuel sender is a component of the fuel pump/
level sender assembly which is secured to the top of the
fuel tank (Fig. 108). The resistance of the fuel sender de-
creases as the fuel level in the fuel tank decreases. The
fuel sender is connected to a fuel gauge mounted to the
instrument panel.
Testing
See Fuel Pump (Gasoline Engines Only) in this chapter
for information on testing the fuel pump portion of the fu-
el pump/level sender assembly.
1. Park machine on a level surface, stop engine and en-
gage parking brake.
2. Remove fuel tank cover and disconnect both ma-
chine wire harness connectors from the fuel pump/
sender assembly.
3. To test the circuit wiring and instrument panel fuel
gauge, turn ignition switch to RUN/PREHEAT. The in-
strument panel fuel gauge should indicate full. Turn igni-
tion switch OFF and proceed with fuel sender testing if
circuit wiring and instrument panel fuel gauge are func-
tioning correctly.
4. Disconnect the fuel supply hose from the fuel pump/
level sender.
A. Lift supply hose barb fitting lock up to unlock
fitting (Fig. 109).
B. Press barb fitting tab and pull fitting from fuel
pump/level sender.
5. Remove cap and carefully lift fuel pump/level sender
and gasket from fuel tank. Clean all fuel from the fuel
pump/sender.
CAUTION
Make sure fuel pump/level sender is completely
dry (no fuel on it) before testing. Perform test
away from the fuel tank to prevent an explosion
or fire from sparks.
