Gas gauges on A-bodies

What is different from this gauge than the Autometer fuel gauage I have now that does not work properly

It actually works and is the correct ohms, all my friends run it and I have it on three of my mopars. We’re all running aftermarket sending units.

I changed to that same gauge and it works fine.

With the sender out and connected electrically, I ohm checked the sender at lowest and highest sweep.
It was real close to what the gauge required.
The tank was close to empty, so I put 2 gallons in the trunk and drove it till I ran out of gas and noted where the needle was.
Pulled the sender back out and tweaked the float arm a little.
Now when it reads empty there’s about 1 gallon left.
Perfect.
