I just installed a new Sunpro Fuel Level Gauge in my Spitfire. The stock one was quite beaten up and never read better than 1/2... Plus I'm changing all Dials to red :laugh: When I started her up under full choke the gauge read perfect, as I have a full tank for sure. A few second into running I pushed the choke in to 1/2 (as its about 65F in my garage, and 55F outside) the gauge started going crazy... as in, rapidly moving from full tank to lower than empty. I don't think the choke has anything to do with this, but its the only thing I did after starting. I also tapped the gas to see if maybe the low idle had any effect, and it did not.
I suppose a loose wire could have this effect, so maybe someone has a diagram of where all the fuel level related wires run? Maybe some tips on problematic locations? Also, do I access the fuel tanks level sensor thingy from the trunk side? I'm replacing that too. I pulled the panel from the interior and I didn't see it.
Pictures are greatly appreciated!
