Evening all,
My fuel gauge only registers to half way up to a quarter of a tank, when I got the car it did not work at all and turned out to be the thin wire from in the sender unit, I re soldered it put back together I have since removed it twice and it works OK showing all the way to full on the gauge if I connect it and move it manually.
It has at least 8 gallons in and still will not go above 8th of a tank on gauge, could it have the wrong sender unit in as when I first looked at it it had obviously been removed at some point due to silicon instead of a seal.
Could the wrong unit cause the problem?
Thanks Russ
