fuel gauge?

[Mister Twister]

Ok we only spent around $50 for A liquid filled screw in gauge. My question is how many of you run across A bad one and what did it do?

Are you talking fuel pressure? The issue with liquid filled gauges is the reading changes dependant on the ambient temperature around it. Making it, somewhat inaccurate even mounted outside the engine bay. Inside the engine bay, once hot, you can forget it for accuracy.

Thank you, thought I was going crazy-er than I already am.

The only reason for a liquid filled gauge is if the pressure is fluctuating wildly. The liquid will dampen the swings and give a more consistent reading. It still doesn't address the cause of the wild swings.
