Does anyone in LCBland know how the fuel sending unit and gauge work together with the 12V negative ground.
I have the new tank installed and a new sending unit in place but the old gauge is with Nissonger for rebuilding.
I assume the sending unit is simply a variable resistor. So in the meantime, I have measured the sending unit resistance and found that it <span style="text-decoration: underline">increases </span>as the full level in the tank <span style="text-decoration: underline">increases</span>. Hence the gauge seems not to be an ammeter since the current would decrease as the fuel load increased.
I'm confused.
Any thoughts anyone???
As always
Cheers
