Sending Unit Question

Hey guys!

I just installed a blazer tank into my truck, but to use the skid plate, I was forced to mount the tank at a slight angle, with the tank being higher in the front than in the back. Anyways, I need to fix the inaccurate reading my gauge is giving me now. What I need to know is what resistance I should be getting with an empty tank. Then I can add a resistor / capaciator as needed to adjust the signal the tank is sending me, I don't really care if my sending unit goes over the full mark, I just want it to be a bit under the empty when it is running empty so I don't run outta gas...
