I ask Jochen if he has one.
Shipping from Germany to Belgium should be better!

Thanks guys!

If I look up the numbers on PET, the -01 is a german market '83 gauge. My PET does not mention a fuel consumption gauge. If it has one, it's probably the older style one (the one that has a l/h alternative)?
Not sure about the other numbers, none of them mention a fuel consumption indicator in PET (can't find the -13 version in my 83-86 PET file).
Maybe first check how much shipping to Belgium woud be. If it is not too much of a hassle, pictures of the units would be very welcome.

But let's first see if Karsten's friend Jochen has something, shipping within the EU is probably a lot cheaper, and no customs apply.

Jochen will look what he has, a little patience.

Thanks, I'm not in a hurry. My car is still undergoing an engine rebuild (is being put back together as we speak).

If the tacho has a ROW consumption gauge and it's pre-84 then it's configured to work with KJet - the CIS fuel distributor has a specific electrical connection for this gauge. I would think the operation of these KJet gauges is probably completely different to ROW 1984-on LH jet gauges.

I know there is a difference. I've seen the gauge that goes up to 18l/100km including an alternative reading in l/h only on 83 K-jet and older cars. That's why I'm looking for the gauge going up to 25l/100km, which I've seen only on Euro S2's LH-jet (84-86).
I've never seen any fuel consumption gauge on the S4 (at least those without the digital instruments, pre 89), so I'm pretty convinced this is the version for me.

Jochen has an rebuild unit with new mirrored light channels but I don‘t think you would like the price. New is 2800 €
I think you should buy the 928 intl unit.

Uh, €2800 is for the whole instrument cluster I suppose?

@Mark Anderson could you check the units you have and take a photo of the l/100km unit?
Could you also check how much shipping to Belgium would be?

I'd have to look up the extra costs for importing goods. The customs office will need some cash and the government will also charge a sales tax..

Darklands

I would think 30 % on top of Marc’s price for shipping and taxes.

$75 to ship

I'm afraid it's the wrong version for me. For what I understand, this one fits the older -83 K-Jetronic systems. I have an 84 LH-Jetronic.

But thanks anyway. I'll keep looking. If anyone has something lying around..

Darklands

My 84 S hasn't a fuel gauge and the 86S has one but I think the gauge is worthless because it's only a guess.

TM___

I know, it's just a gimmick, and not very accurate. Even if it was, you still can't read a precise value on it. I just think it looks cool on a 40y old overcomplicated top-of-the-line GT.
If I can install one without breaking the bank, I'll do so, otherwise, I'll just keep enjoying the car without.

Found myself an S2 cluster near home. Looking forward to another little project!
