I have been fighting the fuel gauge since day one.
I have tried everything, I even put in the Meter Match and the problem still exists.
I had a few OEM fuel gauges and now I am using an after market gauge.
I pulled the tank and removed the latest existing sending unit. I just hooked the unit up to the sending unit (unit) to the electrical system and the gauge work perfectly.
What it comes down to it the sending unit and/or the fuel gauge will not work properly with the sending unit installed in the fuel tank.
I checked the float and that is air-tight. I am baffled.
I have a new sending unit being delivered today, but it does not make sense to put it in knowing it will not works properly.
I am wondering if I seal the rheostat, on the unit, airtight if it may work. But these were never air tight and there may be a possibility of sparking if it is airtight
Anyone have any ideas?
