Which part do I need

I think I need to replace the fuel level sensor in my 02 civic lx.
I am getting inaccurate readings on my gauge cluster.
What part do I need? Is it a floater or a sensor? Is it one piece?
Part # would be great. Thanks so much

Re: Which part do I need

Go to a scrap yard and get the whole unit (pump,float, sensor).

-It's easy just pull up on the rear seats, there are two pressure fit pegs.
-then there is a cover with three of four phillips screws.
-then there is a plastic lock ring.

...the lock ring is the hardest part. I used a block of wood and hit that with a hammer to remove the ring.
