Fuel sending unit?
Has anyone ever put a fuel sending unit in a 2182 tank, I know there's always a way, but was hoping that someone has done it to speed things along. I have a nice 1.5" fuel gauge and I'm planning to replace the dash with all gauges. I have found several adjustable units, but I just need some sort of starting point...

Just my 2 cents but the low fuel light is pretty simple and reliable. First pic shows how I did my 2182. Low fuel light is in the center. Second pic shows how I did my 1782. On the 1782 I retained the factory idiot lights that include the low fuel light.

I put one in my 1250 tank..its pretty easy, just have to bend the float so it reads correct...the sending unit i used was out of a boat....works pretty, i got some white faced gauges that light up, and they match the paint (by luck)... its nice though, i would think youll like it...

The only issue I see is, where to mount the sending unit. It is 1/2" tall above the tank. So i will have to do some thinkin!!!!

Cut a hole under the seat and mount it there. Can't see the hole that way....

That's kind of what I was thinking. Even with the seat moving back and forth I should have just enough room. I was going to cut the electrical connector down and solder the wire on direct since it is whats sticking up so high.

I think I will be ok. I checked it out today when all my gauges came in, looks like it will just clear the underside of the seat pan.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
