I don't know if there is a 'correct' sender for the earlier tank. The one in it works, but the resistance is wrong. I'm away from home now (I'm in America) but from memory, the earlier tank sender was something like 0-90 ohms and the later something like 30-230 ohms. The early one made for a narrow band of reading on the gauge, in the 1/3 full area. Useless in practice.

If you've got an early gauge with the larger resistance range, I'd be interested. The earlier sender fitting into the tank is smaller than the later one.
