I recall putting the ohm meter across the resistor and not getting the 85 to 90 ohms reading. It was in the seventies range if I was reading it correctly. The resistor is just one of those round ones with the coloured bands on it and wires coming out of the ends.

Reading over the post again and RustyPile's comment about the possibility of the resistor value changing tells me the gauge may not be quite as it should. I'll see how it works as the fuel level in the tank runs down. Perhaps I'll be taking it apart again to change that resistor.
