Mi-T-M FUEL GAUGE ASSEMBLY Part 68-3219
Eliminate the guesswork and prevent unexpected jobsite shutdowns with a factory-certified OEM Mi-T-M replacement fuel gauge. Running out of fuel in the middle of a heavy-duty task is more than just inconvenient; sudden engine shutdowns under heavy electrical or mechanical load can damage your equipment’s alternator, water pump, or compressor head. A cracked, faded, or stuck fuel gauge leaves you flying blind. Upgrading to a genuine OEM Mi-T-M replacement guarantees precise fuel level readings, a leak-proof seal, and a float mechanism perfectly calibrated for your machine’s specific fuel tank depth.
Key Features & Benefits
- Precision Calibration: Features the exact float arm length and swing radius designed for your specific Mi-T-M fuel tank, ensuring your “Empty” reading is completely accurate.
- High-Visibility Display: Built with a clear, UV-resistant lens and high-contrast dial so you can quickly verify your fuel levels from a distance without opening the gas cap.
- Chemical-Resistant Construction: The float and internal components are engineered from advanced polymers to resist degradation, swelling, or sinking when exposed to harsh ethanol-blended gasolines or diesel fuels.
- Vapor-Tight Seal: Mounts flush with factory tolerances to prevent dangerous raw fuel leaks, maintain proper tank pressurization, and comply with strict EPA and CARB emission standards.
Common Signs of Failure
It is time to replace your fuel gauge if you notice:
- Stuck Needle: The dial reads full or half-full constantly, even when the tank is completely dry.
- Faded or Fogged Lens: UV damage or internal fuel condensation makes the dial impossible to read.
- Vapor Leaks: You smell raw fuel around the top of the tank, indicating the gauge housing or the rubber gasket beneath it has cracked.
Compatibility
Genuine Mi-T-M fuel gauges are available for the comprehensive lineup of Mi-T-M industrial equipment, including large-capacity portable generators, heavy-duty hot water pressure washers, and trailer-mounted systems.
Warning: Fuel tanks come in dozens of different depths and capacities. A gauge meant for a 10-gallon tank will give completely false readings if installed in a 5-gallon tank. You must strictly cross-reference your specific equipment model number with your Mi-T-M parts breakdown to ensure you receive the correct gauge for your exact setup.
When installing a new fuel gauge, always replace the rubber mounting gasket beneath it, even if the old one appears intact. Old gaskets compress and harden over time; reusing them with a brand-new gauge is the leading cause of top-tank fuel leaks. Additionally, carefully tighten the mounting screws in a star pattern and do not over-torque them, as this can warp the plastic housing and cause the internal float mechanism to bind.
