The simplest way to find out, I would say is to get a multi-meter and measure the resistance of the original sender unit. This is really easy to do. First if you dont have a multi meter you can buy one at an electronics store (they are really cheap), second what you have to do is empty your fuel tank, and with the tank on the vehicle and all the wires connected turn on the ignition switch to on. Your normal fuel meter should indicate an empty tank, then simply connect the multi meter's wires to the two coming from the stock sender unit.note the reading of the multi meter.Next step is to do the same with the tank filled up. I want to go autometer as well and I think that's the only way to find out which is the one that matches, since their applications are mostly for american vehicles.
PS: Don't forget to set the multi meter to resistance in DC (Directional Current) mode
