Gas Tank Switching-gizmo
Have factory saddle tanks on my Grey Ghost(tm) stepside.Has the switch on the dash to change tanks.
First -gas gauge is always past the full mark doesn't move. Second- tanks don't switch - ran the right side dry the left side is full . Siponed a bunch out just to use it up. Third- gizmo valve thing is on the right side frame rail by the right side gas tank.Has four hoses going to it. Assuming this is the tank switching device. Wire going to has power off and on when using the dash switch.Can't feel anything move or vibrate on the device when the dash switch is moved. Now-I'm I right in saying this is the device that switches gas tanks ? Do I buy it at the dealer only ? About the gas gauge-when the wire is grounded should the dash gauge show full or empty ? How about if the wire is seperated from the sending unit what should the gas gauge show ? To change the sending unit do the tanks have to come down off the truck ? Looks like those hoses are cracked anyway. Do all the fuel hoses from the tanks to the switched device enter the top of the gas tank ? Suggestions ,ideas and future winning lottery numbers appreciated ............
