1.8 and 2.0T FWD Sending Unit

[Xit40]

Ok I have a simple question. My fuel sending unit is rusted out on my 1990 Laser RS FWD. I found a good looking sending unit from a 1.8 Eclipse. Since these are both FWD models are they the same? I know the fuel pumps are different, but that doesn't matter to me. It seems likely to me that they are the same minus the pump but I just wanted to check before I dropped the cash on it. Thanx

FWD are the same. AWD is different.

Well I finally got in touch with the person that had the sending unit for sale. It seems the 1.8 liter units are different then the 2.0 liter units. There is no provision on the bottom of the 1.8 liter sending unit for the drain plug that holds the 2.0 liter sending unit in place. Sucks for me.

They are the same. Only 2 part numbers, MB487472 for the FWD and MB542395 for the AWD. Engine size makes no difference.
