Bench testing a gas gauge

Thanks 67 Dart, I finally had time to check out the problem, so I started from the beginning again. Working my way from the tank forward even making sure the wires were good. I knew the voltage limiter was good since I bought one of those that has the LED that blinks if it is getting power and working (that LED is kind of nice after all). I noticed one of my new solder less connections was no longer together. I remedied that and added solder to the connections and the gauge is working now. I'm glad since the new gauge (which I needed since the old one was charred inside) was an e-bay purchase that was pretty reasonably priced. Now I have to find out if the temp sending unit or the wire is the problem at the temp gauge. I thought the voltage limiter would fix that also, but it didn't. I bench tested it and it's good, so I'm hoping for an easy fix. Thanks again
