Crazy Gas Gauge
There's a few ways to approach a workaround
1...Very FIRST thing is to mockup power, a suspected working IVR, the gauge/ cluster, and TEST RESISTORS
and see if they give the readings expected, and then........
2...unubtanium OEM sender "from somewhere"
3...For later A's, don't know about early, someone posted that there's an egag seller selling VAN senders that seem to be better and can be made to fit the A bodys. These have the required tapered resistor
3....There is a couple of products that can electronically correct the sender. "Meter Match" is one of them...........TechnoVersions - MeterMatch for Analog Gauge Correction
4...Again I think for the late A's someone on here did a data sheet on resistance vs sender movement. You will have to search for it, bend the arm, adjust the float, etc.
For me, I'd figure a way to make it accurate at MT to start with that is really the important "end"
