PURPOSE: A fuel sender is provided to accurately measure the remaining amount of fuel in traveling or parking/stopping on slope and curved roads and to keep a lighting-up state of a fuel empty warning light by exactly measuring the remaining amount of fuel on the slope road even in a low fuel level condition. CONSTITUTION: A fuel sender(50) is composed of a sender body(51) fixed and mounted in a fuel tank(63) to sink some portions of the sender body under fuel; resistive plates(52,53) fix-installed and symmetrized to sides of the sender body, wherein resistance value is changed from a side of the resistive plate to other side thereof; a folding union(54) rotatively installed between resistive plates; contact arms(55,56) symmetrized and installed to ends of the folding union and extended to an installing position of the resistive plate; contact points(57,58) mounted to ends of the contact arms, respectively, and contacted to a predetermined position of the resistive plate to generate a constant resistance value; float arms(59,60) extended from both contact arms at a constant length; and floats(61,62) formed at both ends of the float arm to have buoyancy and move upward and downward to the change of oil level of fuel.
