Re: need some help with guages
You can do a quick check on your fuel gauge by disconnecting the brown wire from the fuel tank sender at the fuse panel. The fuse panel will be marked. With the key on when you disconnect the wire the gauge should go to full. If it does get an ohm reading from the brown wire to ground. If the reading is toward the low end of 0 to 90 ohms and the tank is full then more then likely there is a problem with the sender, (bad float or bad sender).
