Woops... New fuel level sender connector?

I need a new connector (or at least the terminals) for the fuel level sender connector that plugs into the bulkhead connector.

Does anyone know the part number, or an OEM replacement?

Seriously doubt you could find that as a separate or new part. You can still get the whole float mechanism as a component from Mazda, it's not too crazy expensive but probably more than you need to spend.

I'd just find a used one or hit up the junkyard, I'm sure there are other 90s Mazdas that used the exact same connector.

I know 1st and 2nd gen Miatas/Roadsters use the same plug but I wonder if there are any models that don't have a premium on their parts.

The 90s Mazda 2 (Demio) seems to use the same connectors.

Turns out the company that makes this particular part is (probably) Onamba Co., Ltd., but they're an OEM harness supplier, not a connector supplier, so the chances of getting just the connector housing and terminal are almost zero.

Thought about just getting some bulkhead connectors? They're usually for high current pumps, but the fuel sender will work too....not as if there's some need to keep a track car stock.

I don't have time to wait to order hardware from overseas.

Not suggesting buying one.

Literally a 5 min job in a lathe. No jobbing shops around where you are? There's the better part of a week gone looking to buy the oem connector already.
