Dorman - HD Solutions Fuel Tank Sending Unit P/N:285-5501
Dorman 285-5402 fuel tank sending unit for the 2007 Peterbilt 330 6-cylinder 7.2L or 8.3L, the 2008-2018 330 6-cylinder 6.7L and other vehicles measures the fuel level in the tank and reports it to the gauge. This Dorman fuel tank sending unit is a heavy-duty unit sold under the HD Solutions line.
A fuel gauge that reads wrong, jumps around or sticks in one place can mean the sending unit has failed. These signs alone do not prove the sending unit is the problem, since a wiring fault can also throw the gauge off.
This sending unit is listed for a wide range of Peterbilt models, including the 2006-2011 Peterbilt 386 6-cylinder 15.2L and the 1995-2011 Peterbilt 320 6-cylinder 10.8L, and each truck takes one. If your truck is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
