Detailed Description

This Dorman fuel tank sending unit, part number 692-116, restores fuel level reporting in the tank on select Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and Scrambler models. It is engineered to mirror the original unit’s fit and function, making it a practical replacement when the factory sender is worn, inaccurate, or no longer operating correctly. The unit uses a single pin terminal and includes the gasket needed for sealing at the tank opening.

Compatible With 1981-1986 Jeep CJ7, 15 Gallon Tank; 1981-1985 Jeep Scrambler, 15 Gallon Tank; 1981-1983 Jeep CJ5, 15 Gallon Tank; 1977-1980 Jeep CJ5, 4.375 In. Filter; and 1977-1980 Jeep CJ7, 4.375 In. Filter. This part cross-references Spectra Premium FG71A for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Inaccurate fuel gauge readings
• Fuel gauge stuck on empty or full
• Intermittent sender signal from a worn internal contact
• Fuel level reporting issues after tank service
• Replacement needs on aging Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and Scrambler fuel systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify tank style and application details before installation, especially the 15 gallon tank and 4.375 in. filter configurations listed for the Jeep CJ5 and CJ7. Use the included gasket and lock ring during installation, and confirm the terminal style matches the vehicle harness connection. The fuel pump is not included, so this sender is intended for vehicles that already use a separate pump arrangement.
