fuel sender check

Post by kiwizook » Sat Feb 09, 2013 3:28 am

I can remember reading somewhere the values that the fuel sender should read at different levels. I took my fuel tank off, and was just checking the sender. these were my readings:
full: 6.5 ohms
half: 35 ohms
empty: 178 ohms
Is this alright? I was just wondering if any one has the right values, as I can't seem to find them :roll:

You could just plug the sender back on the loom and see if it and the gauge match :thumbup:
Don't forget to earth the sender..unless you have a 3 wire type as one is earth.
I would think looking at your figures that it would be accurate enough :thumbup:
