Re: [OMC-Boats] oil sender

OH JD,

BUT YOU DO HAVE AN OMC PARTS MANUAL! YOU JUST DON"T KNOW IT. AND YOUR SENDING UNIT IS LISTED.

YOU CAN VIEW OMC ELECTRIC STRINGER STERNDRIVE ILLUSTRATED PARTS MANUALS AT THE MAIN BRP WEBSITE: http://epc.brp.com

OR THE ONE AT CROWLEY MARINE: http://www.crowleymarine.com/omc_parts.cfm

They have 3-D Illustrated diagrams and show which parts are obsolete (NLA) and they have MSLP pricing (OUCH!)
