Default Fuel Pressure Sender For The Adrenaline/Pulse

Does anyone know the specs needed for the sender to allow the FP to read on the pulse?

I have a Nordskog gauge and it requires a sender that is 240-33 ohm and 0-16#. I was just wondering if anyone knew if that will work with the ADR.

The sending unit we utilize is a 0-40psi resistive type fuel pressure sender, oil sender will work but longevity may be a concern. Ohm range is 240-33ohms. Keep in mind that the
closer to a 0-40psi unit that you can find the more accurate it will be, if you use a 80psi for example it will most likely read slightly too high. Stewart Warner or ISSPRO are viable options, worth looking into. Please understand we will try to do anything we can, we just don't want to sell you guys junk sending units, and why this has been drug out so long. Please contact us anytime with your feedback or questions.

Make sure you get a pressure snubber too. I know autometer sells one. Or an orifice or a needle valve that is pinched down. Something to dampen the pressure pulses. I installed my FP guage without one and trashed my sender within a couple weeks. Maybe someone has come up with a better idea to fix it? I don't know but senders are expensive. I'd rather not see someone repeating my mistake.

I have mine mounted to the bottom of the fuel canister, so the pulses should not be bad there.
