Before I install my fuel tank is there a way to bench test the fuel level sending unit?
Thanks Brian |

The real thin wires on the outside edges of the float are.043 resistance wire. A spool of that 100 ft long is about $5 on ebay. Those wires are usually the first to break when you are cleaning things up. Just pay attention to the routing of them and how they attach to the float . If you dont get it back together right there will be no signal to the guage. Very easy to repair one of these units. 2 beers and a spool of wire. A lot cheaper than a new one!
