Is there such a thing?
Mine is empty when the gauge reads 1/4 tank. Don't ask how I discovered (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bananabang.gif) |

That may not fix the problem. The gauge in my wife's SC was like that when we bought the car. The problem was the gauge, not the sender.
I suggest removing the sender, and measuring the resistance across the gauge output. (From "G" to the three-line ground symbol.) Check it with the sender right-side up, and again with it upside down. Someone here will remember the correct range; I think it's on the order of 90 ohms - 0 ohms? Verify that first. If that measures OK, then I would suspect the gauge. See if you can swap with someone else, or pick up a spare. You might be able to borrow one for testing. --DD |
