Been tracking this problem for a while now, and it's consistent...

Fuel gauge reads accurate when tank full. Not always consistent with showing full, but mostly. With any fuel burned at all, gauge will quickly show below half to a quarter. Cleaned connectors at transmitter with no change....

What's next on the trouble shooting tree?


Thanks,

Ultra

Mark,
You're going to need to pull the sender. You can Ohm it out and clean the wiper and resistor contacts but by that time you might as well put a new sender in.

Thanks Peter, I figured as much. Is Skidim the usual source? They seem to have a pretty good selection and I'd imagine they can get it if its not in stock.

Thanks,

Mark

Mark,
Skidim is one source. Don't forget to use the discount.
