I switched it to an open (not used) one on the bottom of the fuse panel that only gets power off the ignition. Is this not ok?
Hell No, what part of explosion do you not understand.
I'm going to play around with it later tonight or tomorrow.
Thanks

......like I said, this side of the circuit is the ground side of the fuel gauge . You go putting power on it and the resistor on the sending unit will heat up and might ignite the fumes in the tank.
The reason you're not reading any voltage on the fuel terminal in the fuse panel is because the resistor on the back of the fuel gauge drop the voltage low enough to protect the gauge and the sending unit resistor.
