I was helping a friend with his 100 4. The fuel gauge just came back from Nosinger gauge repair. Looks beautiful. I hooked the unit up with the correct wires as per the wire chart and the needle went to full right away. The tank is about full , but this was so fast I am wondering if there is an issue. I have asked the owner to siphon out gas to see if it changes the needle but I also have a quesiton:
I noticed there was seepage around the sender unit in the tank. He ordered a new gasket for that. But, typically when there is seepage, there is also gas within the coil area. Will that affect the reading?
PS: I did put an extra ground to the sender since the fuel line had been cut going to the coil and rubber hose put in which would have killed the ground in that direction.
