Switching over to a racing fuel cell and need to know the resistance range of the existing gauge so I can order a sending unit that is compatible with the gauge. Most seem to be 0-90 ohms.

Thanks McMark. Wasn't trying to be lazy, just efficient as I'm at work. Should have searched myself. And thank you for the thread. Looks like 0-90 ohm range will work fine with the existing gauge, just might not have a working low level light.
