Synopsis
60 Bug Eye
New Sending unit installed in 16 with new gas tank. Such a pain to get at sending unit in BE so replaced the original unit when installing new tank. Separate ground wire for sending unit
Last summer gage working fine.
Took out for first run this year, gage fine with engine not running and during warming up. Tank 1/2-3/4 full
Driving gage was jumping from 1/2- full. Came in, gage read correctly with engine off. Tightened ground to gage a little
Yesterday gage is stuck on full with both engine off and running.
Gage goes from 0 - full when removing the ground. I cannot remember which way the sending unit works. Full volts when full or empty??
I know this has been discussed before.
Any thoughts on this?? Most likely the sending unit??. Shorted wire(s) from sending unit?
I really don't want to have to drop the tank and replace the sending unit unless I really have to
