Fuel Sender and Fuel Gauge problem
Posted: Mon Mar 20, 2006 2:35 pm
I have a secondary Long Range fuel tank that I'm installing in my Surf. The tank is home made and was previously installed in an MQ Patrol. The sender looks like it has been modified to suit the tank.
I have a secondary VDO fuel gauge that I was going to hook it up to.
Now when I have it all apart on the bench seeing how well everything works....well that's where things fall apart.
With it all connected (in the way I think it goes), with the sender in the empty position the gauge reads 1/2 full. With the sender in the full position it reads empty.
My first question is: does the sender have to be matched to the fuel gauge?
If not, what may be wrong?
I can post pics of the bits if necessary.
Cheers
