Hey guys,

Thinking caps on, ok had the fuel tank cleaned and lined from the shop. Put it all back together and my gauge does not work. Put a new sending unit in and still reads no fuel. Pulled the sending unit back out, held it in my hand touched the side of the tank and bingo it works the fuel gauge. U can then move the float and it works. Put it back into the tank and it goes to zero or no fuel....now it all works fine prior removing the tank. What gives? The wire is fine, both connections are good, what am I missing. Thanks in advance,
Kris
