fuel gauge

skydivepaul - 8/10/05 at 05:30 PM

I need to fit a fuel gauge to my Indy, I cant carry on guessing the fuel level anymore. I cant enjoy my driving as much as I am always thinking I will run out of fuel. The tank is a six gallon tank (I think) with a sender fitted. Any ideas for a good looking cheapish gauge?? The car has a carbon dash which I am going to redo over the winter but the gauge needs to fit in with this theme. Not bothered if its analogue or electronic.

Cheers
Paul

what about just a low fuel light, instead of a gauge???

I used a racetech gauge and sender. Fitted in an MK carbon dash, very reasonable price and a nice simple look.

Subs car had a low fuel light wired in with a resistor to the sender. Carry a can of extra juice in the short term.
